jseal - Glad to see you working the political end of the thread. The trend line has not been favorable to you Dems over the last few years, has it? If you really want to regain control of the Federal governmant, take your suggestion to heart. Stop wasting your time trying to demonizing the Republicans. That tactic has been a failure. You guys need to figure out how to present your agenda better than the Republicans. Not just that your agenda is better than theirs, but you've got to move the product!

You might also try nominating people who will win, rather than those who are ideologicaly pure. Remember that while it may be the party faithful, the activists, who are willing to bust their asses to get the right candidate nominated, if she doesn't get elected, all you gan do is sit around for the next few years bitching about the guys who are in control.
