Can democrats save their party ?

It's much more difficult than it seems because the Democratic party is a party of coalitions and coalition building is difficult.

Which is part of the reason it no longer represents the priorities of so many of it's members. If you try and please to many people you end up pissing them all off.

Actually, if you look at the Democratic Party, it's not that the leaders are trying to please too many people, but are trying to please their constituents and not "Leading". Leading means looking at the big picture.

Look at the Blue dogs. The majority of Americans wanted the Public Option, but the Blue dogs became indoctrinated by Fox and the right wing and lost sight of the big picture. The health care bill, as good as it is, is only a shadow of what it could have been. Republicans are convinced it's bad, but can't say how. They just repeat made up stuff.

Yes the current leadership is far left, and only tries to please the far left. My comment was more in general over the long haul.
 
The party with the majority controls the agenda and brings bills to the floor. The minority has no control over the agenda.

Tell that to the Republican Party. They have done such a good job of stopping everything, seems they are the ones in control.


They couldn't stop healthcare nor could they stop the stimulus bill. They didn't have the numbers. I don't know if you have noticed but the 34 dems in the house who didn't vote for the healthcare bill are winning in their districts, good for them. They actually listened to their constituents. For the R's who voted against their constituents, screw em, I hope they lose and they have been losing for their votes with the TARP bill.
 
White women have about 0.6 children per women.
Black women about 0.8 children per women.
Hispanic women about 1.2 children per woman.

The Republican Party is 90% white.

Do these people look like the "future"?

They don't look like they "have" a future. They look like they are going to die in the near future.

Most Americans did not even want the Bill...
