I think you need be realistic about your goals. You would be wise to work within the Dem base and create a splinter group. I think that is your best hope. All the while, you help usher in the next wave of neocon leadership that is eating away at the heart of this country.

Sorry, but you have already been proven wrong in the last election. The Dems and Cons are one in the same. Nothing will change. This is already seen with Obamas refusal to fight the FISA expansion of power. The Dems are aiding and abetting Bush/Cheney' s corruption. In my opinion, a Constitutional panel should be created to ascertain what illegal and unconstitutional laws have been created and who those in Congress are that have violated their oaths of office and they should all be impeached! That would be most of them.
