I've been an active DNC Kicking Ass blogger for over a year. What I'm seeing lately is something very different. A very strong, very angry grassroots movement that is sick to death of the Democratic party. Hackett may have been the very last straw. We are tired and weary of supporting a party that has done little visible work to promote the ideals we believe in.
Check out some of the threads. For instance the
Paul Hackett Thread has more posters on a independently titled thread than I've ever seen. And, they are not shy about voicing their displeasure.
And, today's
Wednesday Open Thread is a further example of the frustration we Dems are feeling.
Tell me what you see. Because I see a ground swell of supportive people that are ready, willing and able to work for candidates they believe in.
Who said it is a two party system? I think there is a very real third party just under the radar, ready to break out. Let's hope our Democratic leaders see this and take up the challenge.
