if the democrats want to win the first thing that they should do is to forget issues like abortion and gun control. Abortion is a dangerous issue because no major pro-life or pro-choice organization has the same position of most Americans on the issue: keep the government out of it. Few people wants a total ban on abortion, but no one want eight month fetus being aborted. Democrats should wait to see republicans destroy themselves on the issues. Gun Control also only alienates voters.
Democrats should be worried with things like education, security, transportation, not abortion, gender issues and gun control. That´s how democrats won the governorship of states like Wyoming, Montana, Kansas, Oklahoma and Arizona.
By the way, it´s bizarre to see how democrats ignore their own gold like Governor Kathleen Sebelius of Kansas or Governor Janet Napolitano of Kansas to praise mediocre senators...
