Hopefully our leadership will be people like Blanche Lincoln, Mark Pryor, Mark Warner, etc., and we'll become a moderate, Southern based Party.  No more nominating New England liberals like Kerry.

So you want the Democrats to become more like the Republicans?

Yes.

Why not just join the Republicans?

Because I don't want us to be Republicans, just move closer to the center; get away from McGovern/Mondale, and move towards Truman/Clinton.

And you support Obama?

I've got nowhere else to go.  McCain's too conservative for me; and the other candidates are nuts.  So Obama '08.

A move back to the type of Democratic Party you want would be best served by a Obama loss.
