2. Nope. We are a big tent so we stand for everything.
Spit on unions? AOK as long as we get elected.
Pro-choice? Pfft, that so 60s.
Eliminate poverty? Poor people don't vote.

3. More...
Women's rights? Well, only if you feel like it.

Gay rights? Ewwww!

Sensible gun regulation? Oh no, we'd lose the NRA!!

A correctly-sized military? Weak-kneed liberal!

Economic fairness? Sounds like (Gasp!) "Socialism"!

The list of things the Democrats don't stand for
goes on and on and on...

5. You might direct that to President Obama -
we all voted (at least I did), but a tattered base couldn't do much against a country that is fed up. End the wars, bring the soldiers home to work on infrastructure, and if you're gonna give massive tax breaks to rich folks at least earmark them for job creation in this country.
