      The problem is that people just don’t vote often enough.

      *If there’s a primary and the candidates are almost identical, you vote for the one who is one step closer to your position.

      The Moral Majority pulled the GOP away from Rockefeller by the simple trick of showing up at every GOP function with enough bodies to win every nomination.

      We have to adopt that simple trick.

      Running for office requires money a lot of people don’t have, even for local positions.

      Other than the fact that the Democratic majority is often in name only, I agree. Dems are only the lesser evil - we must fight to build REAL alternatives in the long term.
