Here's something that I found extremely interesting and inspiring. The defeat of John kerry should NOT spell the end of the Democratic effort to reorganise themselves and prepare for the 2008 elections. This effort should start NOW.

We need to look at the way the media has been influenced, the grass-roots level establishment that helped the Democrats go door-to-door in Ohio (bussing people from places as far away as New York City for weekend trips to swing states), the Internet initiative that has raised unprecedented amounts of money from people - INDIVIDUALS like me - instead of corporations etc.

We should also examine what is the single issue where, had Democrats shown a more neutral view point, they would have prevailed.

One of the things might be that we should ignore people that are radically inclined (like Dean) as well as people that are middle of left - like Kerry. We need someone like *gasp* Clinton to come to our rescue.

If there is a genesis on how Clinton became all that he was, that should be the playbook to be used in selecting the next candidate.

The preparation for the 2008 elections begin NOW - November 3rd, 2004.

Any takers?
