Yep, the Democrats do have to take some of the blame. It was actually very difficult to say what they were going to do other than be moderate Conservatives. Kerry was an efficient but boring candidate. Would he have been a better president than Bush? Well, yes, but so would half of your country's politicians on both sides. Being the anti-Bush isn't enough. If I were the Democrats, I'd stop trying to fight the Reps on their issues and create some of my own, e.g. fair taxation, working conditions, the flow of jobs abroad, government as a good thing, health coverage for all, multilateral foreign policy, equal opportunities and so on. The more right-wing conservatives of the South and Midwest don't intend to vote for you, so why bother trying to appeal to them?
