What could Landrieu have done to go further right?

89. Well if it's that bad, then we may as well just give up and let the Republicans have it all, no??

Dems didn't run on a Progressive platform, they have been running AWAY from the issues that made Dems so popular with voters for such a long time.

Now Dems try to appeal to 'moderate Republicans' this is the philosophy of the Third Way btw.

And dem voters, and young voters are rejecting candidates who are not representing their needs.

Sometimes you have to be bold and courageous, you have to eliminate all the dire, negative projections and just talk to the people. Get rid of all the think tanks and their ridiculous 'findings' and show the people you represent THEM that you won't be representing Corporations.

There is a huge non-voting population in the US shamefully, but they have stated their reasons many times.

Much of that population are waiting for a REASON to vote. It is a gold mine for Dems who are willing to go find them and get them enthusiastic about voting again.

But our think tanks ignore these potential voters and focus on their 'charts' and whatever else they do that get them their big salaries.

We KNOW that Democratic policies are still the most popular across the political spectrum with the American people. Yet, Dems seem afraid to get out and FIGHT for those policies.

You can't win if you don't fight for it. Dems have been bending over backwards or rightwards, based on the myth that this is a conservative country when every poll on issues proves that to be wrong. And we are losing because of it.

And when they lose, the BLAME THE VOTERS. That sure is a winning strategy.

How about LISTENING to the voters for a change? Instead of soulless think tanks that are all over the place spouting off as if they were even in touch with ordinary people, about something they clearly don't know anything about?
