1. Love to see it and have her help DCCC

Love to see DWS team up with Van Hollen to get the House back in 2014. We only need to flip 17 seats.
Right now we should be pouring over all of the 2012 numbers district by district.
Find the 30 most vulnerable Repub House members.
Then, go into those districts and recruit the best possible Dem challengers.
Then, fund them to the hilt and start attacking the REpubs relentlessly until Nov. 2014.
Then, have Obama, Biden, and Clinton campaign like hell for them in the summer of 2014.
To get TRUE meaningful progressive change, we must control both houses and end the Senate filibuster. my $.02.

5. Not going to happen until Steve "Mister Blue Dog" Israel is ousted as DCCC boss

Rep. Israel REFUSES to go after GOP committee chairmen and key players, and has refused to back liberals and progressives in districts that could well have been won this time around. Israel is a stealth shill for the Chamber of Commerce.

7. We sure could use some help here in NY!

Yes, we're a blue state, but that doesn't mean we don't have a lot of red districts here upstate...

Welcome to DU, GeorgiaDemGuy! It's great to have you with us!

2. Obama has demonstrated great respect for women in his appointments. Unprecedented.

3. Great. Eventually Boehner's illegitimate regime will be taken down.

She would make an excellent Speaker.

6. Agreed.

4. That is going to be one of the hardest jobs in politics for the next two years.

i don't think many people would blame her if she wanted to leave on a high.
