.JimHightower says the question for Democrats is basic: 'Do you just intend to hold office... or use it?'

I think we can now say the obvious: The Republican Party has gone bull-goose bonkers. Its leaders have turned the once-proud GOP brand into an unprincipled gaggle of corporate profiteers, hatemongers and screwball conspiracy theorists. They're so far-out that the Hubble Space Telescope can't find them!

It's not like the party elders would have to start from scratch, for an energized, feisty movement of grassroots battlers against corporate greed and government injustice is already organizing, winning and growing popular support all across the country. But the national party's old-line clique of big funders, paid consultants and corporate politicos shun the little-d democrats as unruly outsiders.

The opposite of courage is not cowardice — it's conformity. And right there's the problem with the Big Money establishment that now controls the Party.
