http://news.yahoo.com/biden-democrats-dont-apologize-2014-174153257--election.htmlWASHINGTON (AP) Vice President Joe Biden on Thursday told Democrats to stop apologizing for their policies and go on offense as party leaders try to overcome pessimism about prospects for the November election.
At a Democratic National Committee gathering, Biden said he and President Barack Obama have an obligation to raise money and campaign for the party's candidates. He said he has signed up to participate in more than 120 races and that Obama has given him permission to participate in every campaign where he can be helpful.
"I am so tired about hearing about the demise of the Democratic Party. Give me a break," Biden said. "My central message to you is look: I think we should not apologize for a single thing "

The one thing I will say that the Democrats do much better than the Republicans do now.. is our leaders can rally its members.. they used to say getting Democrats together was like herding cats.. the Republicans (especially in the House) now own that.
