in fact, from my experiences, half of the democrats (elected and voters) are really "moderate Republicans"....they want no tax money to help the needy, the want to let businesses screw the workers and the customers, they pander to the conservatives ---rarely a real liberal or progressive idea or candidate to be encouraged or promoted.

It's always, Texas and Texans are conservative, it won't work here....well, fuck it all --- no one has tried anything remotely close to liberal in 20 years!!! How do we know it won't work? But, lets stick with the same old failed ideas, people, and policies.

Sorry, lots of frustration here!
