From a bigger perspective, the question posed by the thread hits home. Democrats have a much more difficult time coalescing, or "focusing," on issues than their Republican counterparts. We see GOP voters as laser-focused on low (lowlowlow) taxes, de-regulation of business and tight border controls. If we're wrong about that, let us know. What issues are we Dems focused on? Minority rights, maybe. Abortion, meh. Election reform, ha ha. Health care reform, good god we have 10,000 different ideas about this.
I guess we're kinda focused on being better than Republicans and that may be a really low bar but it might be enough.
