    The main problem is that Democrats do not have a propaganda machine like the Republicans do. It does not matter what the message is if it constantly gets drowned out by the unceasing flood of propaganda coming from the right.

      The right isn’t the problem. Our problem is a lack of a left. The Tea Party managed to resuscitate the GOP about 4 terms ago. We need a Guillotine Party to drag the Democrats away from corporate American and back to the electorate.

        The lack of a left isn’t the problem. It’s the left rejecting the center that’s the problem.

          I thought that too, until Harris ran a centrist campaign, and it turned out that American politics has become so polarized that there is no center.

          We’re primed for a militant leftist party.
