Ummmm.... Nice try, but no. I don't watch CNN much if at all. First time I watched in months was flipping between them, Fox, and MSNBC for election results. That would probably explain why I missed "that part" you were talking about. What I was saying was because it's fairly obvious. Just look at the map of which states went with who. The Democratic party is completely missing a HUGE part of this country. They need to do something about that. If they went more moderate, all the current dem's would still have to vote for them until there actually becomes a viable 3rd party (long long time). However by doing so, they may gain swing voters in the heartland. It's a no-lose proposition. They need to do it.
Rogue,
I hope you're wrong. I wanted Bush to win this election, but the Congress thing makes me skittish. I like balance and don't like either party throwing that balance off this much. If they don't change their message, I see it only getting worse.
