I appreciate the thought and time you put into your post. I tend to agree with much of what you said and I find it disheartening. However, I agree with Darkblack that Nader will not pull as many votes as last time so it really becomes a numbers game. The Democrats do not have a "sure thing" or even someone close to a "sure thing" to even win the nomination let alone the election so the party must find a way to envigorate the electorate. If it is not with the ideal candidate it must be on the failures and foibles of the current administration.
Right now, the candidate who is doing this the best and envigorating voters the most is Dean. I am not a Dean fan, but whoever the candidate is could learn a little from him, in that to get voters motivated to come out they are going to have to want Bush out. It may have to be an ugly campaign, but let's be honest we have some real ugly ducklings to work with. Let's hope one grows into a swan.
