That Alan Keyes got 27% of the vote in Illinois says it all

[mtnester]

We have to have a huge change of tactic in the party. And I say outright to the party - not a meeting of the elitists of the party, you need to get a large group of regular old, on the street living the day to day life Democrats involved because the upper echelon of the party are TOO CLOSE TO IT.

You cannot ask the regular voter to support you when you don't have his/her perspective.

1. that doesn't explain how bush won,

born with a silver spoon in his ass. went to yale and harvard. DeKE.

All you need to do is FAKE being a folksy kind of guy.

5. LOL!...thanks for the laugh on a dark day.

We all heard those knuckleheads saying they like * because the jerkoff is like a regular guy.

2. That 27% would have voted for the Republican...

NO MATTER WHAT. Even if Hitler was running on the republican ticket they would have voted for him.

3. I can't believe he got 27%

I was predicting 10-15%

But my perennial congressman Phil Crane is GONE!

6. Alan Keyes is a freaking loon

I cannot believe he took any portion of the vote.

7. 27% is exactly what Kerry got in Utah!

We live in an Upside-Downzo world
