How hard is it to understand, that 70-80% of the population is either center right or center left.
Seems like the libs are hell bent on pushing the extreme left agenda.
I agree +repped


So the Dems are doubling down? After losing both houses and getting in Trump....they want to risk losing more with the old guard? They need fresh blood and listen to America (as in the whole country) really wants.

Warren is a vile rich old white woman with a nasty skeleton or two in her closet.

Bring it on.

Wasn't she the one unwilling to shake peoples hands while campaigning, because they were commoners I guess?

They swept into power in 2010 and gerrymandered the living heck out of many states.
The new majority got Barack Obama elected twice, so it seems to me that the problem isnt the strategy, but rather who leads it.


As for the DNC chairmanship, you are right, it should be Howard Dean.

Extreme left?
Sorry but the Democrats generally speaking, are to the right of the Tory (Conservative) party in the UK.

I think Elizabeth Warren could win a presidential election; she has a better reputation than Hillary in some respects. I don't care for her, but Trump might alienate a lot of independent and/or white voters in his first four years, and usher in a Democrat resurgence; and Warren could ride that wave to the top...

I agree Warren has a better reputation than Hillary. The problem is she will really struggle on a national platform. Its just my opinion

A loudmouthed dork with zero charisma. I fully endorse her to be the next Democrat candidate for president of the United States.
