assuming that we all consider ourselves Democrats, I can only speak for myself and proudly and loudly proclaim I am a life long Democrat, welcome open discussions about our leadership good or bad...

Instead of undying fealty to any empty headed idiot that shows they can get attention and are deemed electable, we not only pick out the flaws but we demand our leadership grow once elected.
