254. One could make the case the repeated rightward moves by dems
and reliance on voters to vote dem anyway, as the lesser of two evils, suppressed the turnout of the base, thus allowing bush to win. The democratic party needs to start standing for something, earning some respect, and building a loyal base of supporters who actually *want* to vote for the democratic candidate. Offering voters a candidate advertised as the 'lesser of two evils' year after year is not much of a strategy for long term success.
