    Kamarck must be living in a bubble

    if she seriously thinks PUMAS are Republicans! I agree with NYdem08 who posted earlier: we are the true base of the Democratic party disgusted by fact that the Dems have been the ones acting like Republicans, corrupting the electoral process and acting like we're spoiling THE ONE's coronation.

    Look at the polls as Obama tanks and ask yourself why did the Dem establishment push the most corrupt, inexperienced, flip-floppin' candidate on us? I will never vote for him, partially because I am disgusted by how Pelosi, Brazile and Dean ran the party into the ground.

    Anyway, Brazile and Axelrove said they don't need the old Dems so why should you be surprised if they stay home or vote McCain?

    And I'm tired of hearing about the Supreme Court. If the Dems in the Senate had done their jobs Alito and Roberts wouldn't be on the court today.
