I remember six months ago wondering how the Democratic party was going to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Here they were a party of adults as the Republicans were doing their best imitation of governance.

And now look at us today. I really can't believe that I have to argue with people that fracking, selling war, capital punishment, Drill baby Drill, are not what Democrats stand for.

I didn't leave the party, the party left me.
