We would do well to adhere to what Chris Moore of KDKA and WQED says: "There is not a dime's worth of difference between the Democrat and Republican parties." I have frequently written and stated publicly that the Republicans believe that if Blacks vote at all they will vote Democrat and the Democrats believe that if Blacks vote at all they will vote Democrat, so in reality both parties disrespect Black voters.

Word of [David Plouffe]'s involvement, first reported in The Boston Globe, came as he traveled to Boston last Friday for a [Deval Patrick] fundraiser. He was also the keynote speaker at last Saturday's Democratic Party issues convention in Springfield. [Cahill] added: "I can guarantee you if I make the decision, it will be a better reason and more thought out than the reason that [Pennsylvania Sen.] Arlen Specter gave for switching parties, which is that, I can't win one; I'm going to do the other.'
Kristen Dexter, a member of the Altoona Board of Education, says she's challenging Rep. Terry Moulton (R-Eau Claire) because her three children are old enough for her to pursue politics. "The fact that it could be a good year for Democrats, that remains to be seen," she says. "That didn't inform my decision in any way. Barry Burden, a UW-Madison professor of political science, says health care appeals to both the "beer drinking" and "wine drinking" factions of the Democratic Party. But other issues, like immigration, may prove more divisive. For instance, unions and African Americans often-see immigration as a threat to their job security and are less likely than "wine drinking" liberals to back immigration reform as a social-justice issue. We're optimistic that [2008] is going to be ...
DAYTON -- An emergency cold-weather shelter is being reopened in the Montgomery County Democratic Headquarters building after the city fire marshal ordered a homeless shelter board to stop using a former commercial building to house as many as 55 men a night. The Society of St. Vincent De-Paul will resume using the second floor of the Democratic headquarters building, 131 S. Wilkinson St., after the city fire marshal ordered the closing of a temporary emergency shelter in a building at Edwin C. Moses Boulevard and Washington Street.
It's bitter irony for Democrats, but President Obama's election "shellacking" last week could help his economic program. Early signs of that could come in fresh progress on free-trade agreements the Bush administration negotiated with Panama and Colombia. While support for and opposition to trade issues cut across party lines, the incoming Republican House majority and a chastened Senate Democratic majority - nearly half of whom are up for re-election in two years - are likely to be more "business- friendly." Final touches to a more politically sensitive South Korean pact - which could add $10 billion in exports annually to the $60 billion bilateral trade tally - could come during Mr. Obama's current high-profile Asian tour.
The "50-state strategy" of Howard Dean, head of the Democratic National Committee, beefed up campaign funding in Wyoming and other states where the party's candidates looked like long shots. The Wyoming Democratic Party had one full-time staffer until, 13 months before the election, Dean's group sent money to hire two more. The new staffers organized far more volunteers than had been available in recent campaigns and "really built up our ground game, the infrastructure," says Mike Gierau, state party chairman. The close results in [Gary Trauner]'s race and the party's net gain of three seats in the Legislature will encourage more viable Democratic candidates to run in 2008. Dean's strategy "was an immense help in Wyoming," Gierau says. According to [Jeffery Sells] and other experts, the...

Historically, Latinos have tended to side more with the Democratic Party than with the Republican Party--in New Mexico, in California, in Texas, in New York. Latinos felt Democrats represented more of their interests...what I find interesting is both the Republican Party and specifically George Bush are challenging that because they argue that Latinos tend to side more with Republican Party when it comes to values--on abortion, on divorce, on homosexuality. In that sense, Latinos are very conservative, but when it comes to other issues, Latinos side more with the Democratic Party, mainly when we're talking about affirmative action or bilingual education. The last polls I've seen, the majority of Latinos will vote for the Democratic Party, but the important question has to do with percen...
I am proud to have been the president during a "year of such unprecedented growth. In this exciting election year my plan is to ensure that we continue to grow new programs that inform and benefit the community. We will advance the goals of the Democratic Party through public policy and political issues, analysis, education, fondraising, recruitment, coordination with other Democratic groups and other activities...'
