14. if you want Salazar to change you will work toward electing
more Democrats at both State and Fed levels. George Bush won this state by the same amount Salazar did. That's about a six percentage point swing - of people who voted for both Bush and Salazar. The Democrats of this state need to show him that he (or other DEms) can win here without having to cater to the crossover vote.

Instead of the constant din of DU's "disapproval" - and the usual threats of witholding support -maybe what we need to do is show results in elections - those are the things politicians pay attention to -
