re: #209 doppelganglander

I think if the party leaders would embrace this approach and steadfastly refuse to get drawn into the same dumb, unwinnable arguments, the voters would follow immediately. I think Michael Steele is never, ever in a million years going to go for this, nor will most of the Republicans in Congress. Someone at the state level, a governor or gubernatorial candidate most likely, needs to get on this horse and ride it straight to the White House.

Maybe I’m a starry-eyed idealist, but I believe that permanent change will only come from the bottom. Otherwise, it’ll be another “Contract”.
