Sure the democrats have sucked, but there is still very much an anti-republican feel in much of the country.
    I am saying the Democrats should have had a slam dunk for 2008. Now, I have a better chance than they do.

        They just don't get it. Women, Jews, blacks . . . they are a hard sell.

            Ah I misunderstood your post. I fully agree. About 8-9 months ago I think pretty much everyone assumed that the dems were going to stroll into the white house and but things have really changed.

            I saw a politcal guy the other day say, "every election the dems figure out a new way to lose."

                Funny, I am watching Lewis Black and he just commented on how the Dems could have gotten rid of Bush in 04 but went ahead and nominated Kerry.

                It is almost like they don't want the responsibility of being President. This way they can blame everything on the Republicans.

                    clinton wouldn't be getting much attention if she wasn't a woman and if it wasn't for her husband.
                    Obama is the most charismatic person in the race. The fact that he's black has helped getting him some attention but if he was un-charismatic and talked a lot of shit he wouldn't be where he is now

                        I had always said that Gore was handed the presidency and screwed up badly and lost. Then in 2004 they had a very good chance of winning it back. People were unhappy and things in Iraq were going badly. I don't know if Howard Dean or any of the other candidates would have been able to do any better, but they lost again. I always say that one of their problems is that they never fight back. Bush attacked Kerry and he refused to fight back or defend himself. I think people want to see someone that will stand up and hit back when they are hit. If you come off like any kind of wimp it hurts you bad and a lot of the dems come off as wimps.

                            Lieberman was a poor idea.

                                A worse idea was distancing himself from Bill Clinton.

                                    yep, he was a very bad choice.

                                        exactly. Clinton, for all his faults, was still really popular when he left office. Gore should have rode him to the whitehouse but he decided he had to make sure he distanced himself from him.

                                                That was dumb. More division.
