Its hard for me to be a Democrat sometimes. Every time I turn on the TV or the radio...someone is calling us defeatists, unAmerican, traitors, socialists, etc. Look after the Bush-Kerry election I thought that the democrats felt it was time to move to the middle-demonstrate that we were a party of veterans, a party who embraced religion, who supported our troops, etc. etc. but why is our party leaning so far to the left-why are our candidates embracing websites like Daily Kos and Moveon.org. We will not win middle America, mainstream Americans, normal Americans, if we don't move to the middle. A party that embraces all people, all views not the party of exclusion or hyprocracy. Yes we won over the Congress and the House-but we won with moderate Democrats like John Tester, Jim Webb, etc. I am a moderate Democrat...I believe in God, I suppport our troops, I want peace-I know war is sometimes necessary, I want us to win in Iraq- I love my country!
