Your point of view is spot on .. democrats need to stop wringing their hands, get out and talk, listen to the people. We are all damn mad, doesn’t make a difference if we are red or blue .. it is time that people wake up and realize that the uber wealthy have got us fighting with each other, the true war is between the ultra wealthy and the working people. stop listening to the pundints and bobble heads. Watch and listen to the Meidas!

But Democrats ARE getting out and talking to people, and if you don't know this, others aren't noticing either. My congresswoman has not only held town hall after town hall (at one on a snowy night in February she asked people who'd never been to one to raise their hands and it was more than half the huge room) and also specialized meetings on topics like housing and small business assistance. I'm in Ohio 11; Shontel Brown is my congresswoman. How many town halls do you think Dave Joyce (R) in adjacent Ohio 14 has held? A big fat zero (although the Geauga County Democratic Party did hold an empty chair town hall for him). Republicans don't feel they have to talk to constituents, just scare them.
