is to stop dithering. Get off its dead azz and stop doing what it's doing, which is hanging onto some old dead party "leaders" who are basically talking to themselves. Listen to the young Democrats who are trying to talk to them instead of pushing them away. LET THEM IN! Because it's a basic truth that if you always do what you've always done, you'll always get what you always got. Apparently the Old Guard has yet to learn that lesson. Do we need to take them back to 1968? AGAIN?
