As you can probably tell I have been taking a bit of a break from the blog. I have also been taking some time away from political news in general, but I wanted to pop back up to add my voice to the the many voices that have already demanded that Howard Dean be the new DNC chair. It is crucial for the future of the Democratic party that some changes be made. I think that Howard Dean is prepared to make those changes, and I am afraid without him we will have more of the same right-leaning rhetoric that we have been getting from the Democrats for far too long. It is time for the Left to have a say in this country, and if the Democrats won't put someone in charge with some backbone then maybe we will have to create a party that will. The Democrats have a real chance here to show us what direction they are going to take the party. Will we let them give us more of the same?
