It would have helped if the Democrats nominated a reasonable  
candidate. Kerry was a horrible candidate, as was Gore, as would be  
Hillary Clinton.

I believe in the ideals of the party. I just wish they'd nominate  
somebody I could take seriously.

If the Democrats stopped treating the party like a country-club that  
rewards loyalty instead of merit, I think you'd be correct and the US  
would swing to the left.
