It's the Dem politicians that are WAY behind where the people are. The Dems need to catch up. With candidates like Leiberman and Hillary, they're not showing any signs of that. So, they'll continue to lose. It's not the PEOPLE's fault, as you would have it. Voting for Repugnican-lite DLC candidates only worked ONCE, with a great pol, Bill Clinton, and even then just because of Ross Perot. Get over it.

Our congressional candidate had a shot in this district if he had been a little more centrist, but the people here that vote in primaries are like people that vote in most primaries, LOOKING FOR REAL OPPOSITION. Well...they got REAL opposition and they didn't get a congressman and that's why the DEMS can't win anything. Do you understand what a centrist is? Its the very thing the GOP accused Kerry of being in the last pres. election. A flip flopper. They don't have a clear ideology because they want to place as many people under their umbrella as possible. So then, a centrist doesn't venture into new territory for fear of alienating some of his/her constituency. Is that what you want? A country that stays the same year in and year out, and never sees a lick of progress? If so, count me out.
