The problems within the Democrat Party are systemic. Just look at who their "up and comers" are, and you will see they are heading in the worng direction and will continue to for the foreseeable future. Until they return to their roots and get rid of their Socialist "ask what the government can do for me" attitude, they must be driven to a choice between reorganization or failure. If their ideas prevail, the country will be doomed to failure. Socialism is a great Ponzi scheme when taken to its illogical conclusion. An economy where fewer and fewer producers must support more and more consumers cannot sustain itself. No, it hasn't failed everywhere it has been tried because "they just didn't have the right people running it or they didn't do it right", it has failed because it HAS been done according to its basic theories.

Only a fool would vote for a party that has as its main goal driving his boss out of business.

Hopefully the crushing defeat the dems will receive in Nov will allow a new Democratic party to be formed.
One that can act as a real political party and not just an "opposition" party.
Only a fool would be anti-war in this day and age, yet a significant portion of the democratic party is. Why, because they don't agree with the use of US military power ? Nope, they had no problem when Clinton used it, its all about OPPOSING Bush. That's all these folks can think about, not what's best for the USA or even what's best for themselves personally.

Its quite amazing to see a good percentage of highly educated Americans not THINKING FOR THEMSELVES.

One thing that is certain out of all of this is that our Republic is on the road to recovery. The problem is that the media was supposed to be the watchdog to guard against the abuses of government but it instead had become the propaganda arm of the Democratic party. There was no one to watch the watchdog!

Things have changed and just in time!

No longer can a handful of slick politicians and media elites control the information available to the people. Tens of thousands, if not millions, of individuals will beat a few hundred "professional" reporters hands down.

The MSM do not have the financial resources to field as big a pool of investigators and reporters as the internet can bring to bear on any issue.
Within a matter of minutes the process begins. Each item of information is discovered, checked, rechecked, disputed, argued about until a concensus emerges. Each new fact leads to others. People remember things, people know people who were there, someone knows an expert, someone else knows how things were done at the time, and on and on.
Eventually all is revealed.

People this is huge! Full accountability is now demanded by the people! Nothing less can be tolerated. No longer can anyone in public life hope to avoid exposure if they are not completely honest. Character, Integrity, Honesty, and strong moral character are now paramount to any who would seek public office. In addition, promises made by candidates will be vetted and debunked or affirmed. The day of empty promises is over!
There will now be a full discussion of every issue.

This campaign is the equivalent to Concord and Lexington, and we have just fired "The shot heard around the world"

I agree! This is a much bigger story than I think anyone realizes.

Hurrican Ivan and the 9/11 anniversary have conspired to temporarily pull attention away from this issue. But it is not going to go away.

CBS is in the crosshairs of an ambush that they created through their flawed, Pravda-esque, old media processes. And now they're going down.
