Any dem campaign experience? I did so much more than push bumper stickers. How about you? It's time to understand that the party leadership serves at the pleasure of the grass roots. The grass roots has every right to challenge the party leadership when they see that the party leadership's strategy is clearly not working which is exactly what's happening right now.
