I am not a Democrat and I am not for the democrats but my objective side thinks that you are thinking logically. All of the items you listed are totally what the Democrats need to do but they can't even agree that they need to get together and have an event like CPAC. Good post. My gut says it would be more of a fight than a discussion but sometimes that is what an organization needs to clear the air and get back on track.
We are still out there NONOBADDOG, there are still liberals who think "country over party", and who will work with conservatives when we have common ground and common goals, and that is not as rare as some would have you think.
What I cannot abide is a party that would rather acquiesce to big donor money needs and demands when those needs and demands run counter to what the people want. Both major parties have been retooled and rebooted several times in the 20th and 21st century.
My guess says it is time for the Democrats to be rebooted and reorganized. We have precious little time to do it.
And we do not have the generational length timeframe required to stand up an entirely new party to knock the Democrats down either.
