3. The Democratic Party machinery ignores many of us.
They take GLBT groups for granted.
They take Black and Hispanic communities for granted.
They take urban areas for granted.
They take athiests, sceptics and the less than fully religious for granted.

The main selling point seems to be, "Hey, we won't treat you quite as badly as those other guys, so you have no choice but to voice for us."

The Democratic party is clearly the lesser of two evils, by far, but it would be nice to vote for the good guys for a change instead of the lesser evil.
