Seems to me they get more and more conservative as time goes by, and cave to the republicans instead of making a stand and fighting for their convictions. I question whether their convictions really mean anything to them anymore. And yes, some Dems are a lot better than others. But most compromise way too much and do a disservice to their constituents.

Drew, with the recent abolishment of the closed primaries here in the State of California, I am more willing to vote my concious instead of straight down the party line. There have been a few times I could not vote straight party and in those cases, I could not bring myself to vote for "other" either. Not all elected positions are partisan. For example City Council races. Thanks for putting in your 2 cents.
