Reply #35: I am a patient and forgiving person [View All]

But at some point I might have to realize that it's not the same party or the one I had hoped it was. *IF* that becomes blindingly evident, then I will put my vote where my mouth is.

I can handle issues and disappointments, bitch about it, work it out later, etc. It won't be perfect, never has been and never will be.

But damn, we need LEADERS and I don't see that. I get more leadership here on DU than I do looking towards the people we elected to lead us.

Even if we lose the vote on a bill, etc, I at least want to see some trying, leading, and campaigning on bills like they do for office. Don't just introduce something and say 'well, we put it out there' get out there like you are trying to WIN and get people to back it. Just like for elections - get people on the ground, passing out flyers, calling people, etc and so on.

Run commercials, get in front of the mics, fight for US like you wanted us to fight for you during election.
