far be it from me to suggest that he shut up, but I would suggest that the other side has become rather successful because they have a unified, if completely bullshit, message.
Reagan and Clinton both managed discipline within the party ranks, and perhaps that's what ultimately got them both two terms. Hate the DLC as much as you want, but it got us 8 years in the White House, and more votes for Gore.
So, the good Doctor would be a marvelous asset to the party and Kerry's election chances if he should only better learn the nuances of public speaking. If he was better at it, he might actually have been the nominee by now.
One can speak the "truth" and not be a clod about it. He is not speaking to us, the choir, he is speaking to at least 50 million uncommitted voters. And he'd better impress them, not piss them off or become a laughing stock with them.
