    The way things are looking right now - and this is only month #1- it’s hard not to feel a little disillusioned

      and this is only month #1

      For some people it is.

      Others reached that line earlier.

      A lot of those people are still regular dem voters and have been for decades, despite the disillusionment.

      Rather than fight with them, why not join them?

      Why not solidify the left?

        I hear ya. I’m starting to think the US needs a real third party and it’s not J Stein or the greens. I mean a real third party.

          Ken Martin isn’t too bad, and I hope we see some real change out of the DNC under his leadership.

          I’m fine giving them some time to see it tho, if O’Malley had won I’d be pushing for a third party right now.
