31. I remember those meetups and marches, and I miss those days too.

Hell, I can't remember the last time I saw a DUer in person.

One person who deserves some of the blame is Obama, for getting elected. DUers' similarities vastly outweighed their differences when Bush was president. There was a LOT to rally around. And I think that even today, we are all much more similar than different. Our perception is totally warped without that focal point that Bush gave us, and with the actions of our party when it's in power..

But I still miss those days
