If Dems could sponsor a resolution to rename the Republican party, what would the new name be?
As EarlG reminded us in the Top10 this week, 23 RNC members led by Indiana's own Jim Bopp have sponsored a resolution calling on the Democratic Party to rename itself the Democratic Socialists. What's good for the goose, right?

1. No. These are serious times. Let's concentrate on what's important.
That 'will show them', to coin a phrase.

But it will. Let's show them that their attempts at raising our ire won't work. Slow, steady, onward.

The hell with them.

7. Come on...they don't care what we say on a message board. It's not as if our actual DNC was doing
it.

You're right about a 'board', but sometimes it's important. Actually, this one is.
