Our DNC

Folks, one blogger has done a terrific job following the fight over who will head the democratic national committee. My DD. CLICK HERE

It may seem far away and unimportant, but this fight will determine whether the democrats go from being professional election losers to building something that can smash the Rethugs and send them the way of the Whig Party.

The fight is between the old school Democratic leaders (Pelosi, Reid, Kerry) who want to swing us even further right and, quite frankly, still do not realize (even after getting smacked 3 election cycles in a row) that they are fighting a power mad republican party that sees nothing off limits, has no accountability to the law, has sold it's integrity to the highest bidder, has control over ALL THREE branches of government and has a pravda style media channel to push it's corrupt agenda.

The other side (Dean, moveon.org) wants us to regain our populist roots, restate what we have long stood for and remake a mirror image of the VRWC with new channels such as blogging.

One reader of PTS, our very own PRODIGAL SON emailed in to say that he thinks a convention is in order after we have selected a new leader, to come up with a Democratic "Contract with America" style campaign (except for the hypocracy) and then we need to publicly excommunicate people like Zell Miller and other Dems who do not want to sign on.

Please email PTS with your thoughts for a list of what you think we as demos stand for and we will post 'em.
