Elected Dems and Backbones...
Edited on Thu Sep-07-06 03:11 PM by Sick_of_Rethuggery
This is what I have been saying for years: if we, the people show some support for them, elected Dems will find the courage to stand up to the GOP bullies .

Back when Gore showed every bit of backbone and chose to fight within the legal framework, he received no support from either his voters at large (there were no mechanisms to make this known of course back then!) or other elected Dems, it went no where...

Edited to fix header mistake...

1. Support is the key.
Tell 'em you appreciate it when they're standing up. Better yet, send cash.
