7. On his bash the NE Liberal rant
Even though Edwards didn't even win his own county. And we don't want to run a rock star like Bruce Springsteen, hint, hint - never mind the numbers of stars who have been all over Iowa including Susan Sarandon's husband. He's what's wrong with the party too.

liked him, the way he spoke, what he said, and he took on *ucker mighty good too.

19. I like the guy.
And, hey!, I take care of myself and get regular manicures and all, but I am sick to death of these sensitive, wussie progressive types.

The guy knows how it works.

We need more Dems with real cojones.

And that is my take on Mudcat.

11. He's not bashing Northeast liberals in the traditional sense
He's talking about the eilte variety of "liberalism" that forgets about the bread-and-butter issues.

I'm from Massachusetts, and the working-class liberals around here would agree with Mudcat.

12. "Idiot"? Why? Because he supports Edwards?
He's a savvy advisor. I'm undecided by the way.

18. Mudcat Sanders believes that the only electable Democrats are
the ones that can relate to Bubba; code for, White Southern Males....
and in order for The Democratic party to attract Southern White Males voters in order to win they need candidates who can "relate" to bubba.

Along the way, Saunders, 55, became a sought-after source for reporters covering the battle for the hearts and minds of so-called "NASCAR dads" - the label pundits have attached to white, culturally conservative men who typically vote Republican in national elections. Saunders' sharp-tongued remarks have appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post and the Christian Science Monitor, on CNN, MSNBC and the CBS Evening News.

Saunders told them all that a Democratic presidential candidate can appeal to those voters if they show respect for gun rights and avoid letting social issues define their campaigns. If Democrats can "get through the culture," they then can get rural voters to listen to their ideas about the economy, jobs and health care, Saunders argued.

In other words, Saunders said in a recent interview at his home along Back Creek , Democrats have to overcome "the wuss factor."

"The lie is that the Republican Party is better for the white male than Democrats and that's bull----," said Saunders in his mountain drawl.

But Saunders admits that he and other like-minded Democrats face an uphill battle persuading rural, white males - especially Southerners - to abandon the GOP.
