I'm finding it seriously disappointing that year after year the national and state Democratic Party organizations fail to give out any information on retaining judges. These judges make decisions that affect very important issues we all care about and yet here in AZ (it was the same in CO,NM, and UT where I also lived) I find NOTHING on the Party site regarding judges except a notation that the party makes no recommendation to remove any judges, at all. Surely there is one judge IN ARIZONA that the Democratic Party feels should not be retained. It is a systemic failure in national and state Party structure that ignores this very important area in elections.

I think we'd all pretty much agree that Democratic control of Congress has been less than satisfactory. The very real concern we all seem to have is how best to tackle the problem. Most solutions presented resort to the "fire under their ass" model. This could work but I prefer a more focused goal. My solution is to get rid of their traitorous butts by primarying them out but do it with precision.

For starters, we need to remember the 2 VERY REAL built-in factors in our favor. 1) 41 sure votes in the Senate keeps us in the game, and 2) should we lack those 41 votes, a Dem president keeps us safe from Republican maneuvering. Given these factors, we can begin to solidify around possible solutions.

My solution would be to identify here on DKos, and in concert with other Democratic blogs and institutions, the 41 Senators best suited to our goals. We work to chuck the rest without regard to losing control of the Senate. Read on and I'll explain my reasoning.
