majority. While I doubt that, I think she is working for a Conservative majority. The Power That Be have manipulated the two party system into what it is today. The Republican party are the bad cops while the Conservative Democrats are supposed to be the good cops. Progressives/liberals have been disenfranchised. In a working balanced two party system H. Clinton would be a Republican. She and Christie aren't that far apart. In fact, there are people here in DU that claim to be "politically liberal" that would support Christie today if he merely switched parties.

I don't disagree with those that say we need to get active locally, but there is a huge disconnect between local politics and national politics. DWS is working to keep it that way.

PS: Have a great thanksgiving day.
