Democrats and the South

please excuse my mess
while I redesign my journal.

The YearlyKos panel on whether or not the Democrats need the South to win was freaking FABULOUS. Worth the $10 bucks alone.

Oh, man. It was so awesome. The panel members fought and got really angry, and the crowd was yelling stuff at the stage and people asking questions were so emotional that their voices shook when they spoke. Other people shouted at the panel members with rage. It was a collision of the conflicting attitudes and resentment and tensions between the Democratic HQ and Southern Democrats and Christian Southern Democrats.

I am literally speechless, it was so awesome. The panel moderator had to close with, "And remember, we're all Democrats here!" No one came up with any easy answers and there wasn't a consensus, but it got all of the contentiousness and bitterness out in the open, and it was awesome.
