Great and telling, though depressing, read. I get impatient with the people who ask "What should we do?" or "Why aren't the Democrats...?" The Democrats in leadership are pretty smart people, and I hope/believe they're doing what they can, although their messaging needs work. As for the rest of us, let's stop looking for advice and start working politically in our own communities. Every little bit helps, and if we don't do it, then who will?
