I think that the main reason that the Democrats have been losing is because they are spineless. Not "spineless" in the weak on terror, national security, sort of way but rather, they don't seem to be willing to stand up to the Republicans and call them on their BS. I mean, really. The Pubs ran on a platform of "keeping America safe", and yet have done absolutely zilch to protect our borders or prepare for any sort of catastrophe. So, have the democrats called them on this? Nope, not really.
Quite honestly, I think the only Democrat there is that I have any respect for right now is (and I'm sure scaeagles will get a laugh out of this) Russ Feingold. Not just because of the censure thing either, although I agree with it wholeheartedly, but because I think he has integrity. I don't agree with everything he says but that is not as important to me as someone who actually stands for
something.
Basically, I'd like to see roughly 99% of them voted out.
