"If we are mean, we are just as bad as they are."

No.

They lie.

We don't have to lie. We stand for the workers, the poor, the sick, the elderly, the discriminated, the marginalized, the family, liberty, clean air and food, protection of the earth, and so many more admirable causes.

We don't have to lie. We tell the truth and they hate it.

But our leaders are pussified. They get money from corporations. They fear conflict.

Look back to LBJ. He got what he wanted from Congress. Look at Harry Truman.

If Democrats would shake off the timidity, the party would be even more than the current 13 points above Pugs in the polls.
