Why is it that our Dem Party only Listens to us when they LOSE?
then they come out and encourage us "Activists" working for re-Energizing the Party and they give funds for Progressives and stuff to get the VOTE OUT...and support "Move On" and other other sites that support Dems on the LEFT of the Party (not the DLC WING) ....BUT...when Elections Come Up..(mid-term and national) they some how FORGET US?

Anyone notice this?

1. They want us to work for them, but they are reluctant to work for us. nm

2. A true dysfunctional relationship
Are we the enablers? Maybe we can start up a 12 step group.
