Preaching to the converted

The conversation about who the Democrats are going to run for President all seems geared to who the liberals like. But every single liberal is going to vote for anyone who's not a Republican.

The real conversation needs to be about who some portion of the conservative voters would vote for. Because they're the ones who need to get on board. Give them a distasteful option, and they'll keep voting for their own - no matter how bad that person happens to be. (To wit: GWB.)

"You don't need to make peace with your friends. It's the other people who are the challenge."
