The following DU poster got quickly shouted down:

>>we have got to wake up and smell the ass kicking. bill clinton has shown the way to win. most real dems say that he was a republician, well so is most of this country, well at least the one's that vote. the others are just as happy as a pig in slop. they don't care who wins as long as they get their benefits. they don't give a rats ass about the direction of this country because they are all fat and well fed.
we have got to start appealing to the people who go and vote, and those are the folks in the middle, we have got to start pushing for tax reductions for the middle class big time. we have got to start pushing for improvements in the military, I say mainly for the personnel, not big time weapons. we have got to become the party of the small business man.

people are scared of the boggy man, and georgie is beating us to the punch. welfare is going to have to go, so will affirmative action, they are killing us with this stuff, and the people who get the most benefits from this will not even take the time to go out and vote. and don't think I'm some half ass repug, I'm not I'm just tired of lossing to the lying sob's. to win we are going to have to play like they play.

it's funny because this is what nader is hoping for. for the repugs to screw things up so bad that all of those fat and happy people I'm pissed at will lose that comfort blanket and get mad. the problem with that is we will be deep in a depression, and I just don't want to go there just to get somebody that gives a damn elected.

sorry for the rant, but man I'm so pissed off I don't know what to do.<<

Man, Democrats push for middle class tax cuts? They really are getting desperate ;^)

I just checked the DU discussion board too, I was LMAO. Those poor souls are in agony, they think their candidates lost because they're not leftist enough (expletives deleted by me):
