22. I'm talking about voters, not DU posters or politicians.
And DU is outright callous towards actual moderates and centrists. You know, the centrists and moderates that exist in the real world, not the echo-chamber of DU, where "moderate" is "George W. Bush is an evil, horrible man, but I wouldn't go so far as to call him Antichrist." Most Americans actually *don't* think GWB is evil, and trying to put forth candidates who will call him such is no more effective for capturing swing voters than Clinton-bashing was--it's good for riling up the extremist base, but nothing else.

Oh, and by the way, we at DU are extremists. It's good to keep that in mind.
