Democrats In Disarray

December 4, 2002 | Issue 38•45

Having lost control of the Senate and lacking a clear leader and message, the Democratic Party appears to be in disarray. What do you think?

Old Woman

Marjorie Stamp,
Nurse
"As a Democrat, I have high hopes in 2004 for Rep. Tom Lanford, a charismatic young centrist from Ohio with a clear vision for the party. Okay, I just made him up."

Old Man

Al Fanseca,
Systems Analyst
"In this time of war, the Democrats have unselfishly recognized that America simply cannot afford to have two strong, competing parties."

Young Man

Rick Snell,
Carpenter
"All the Democrats I've talked to know exactly what they stand for: not being Republicans."

Asian Man

Donald Paul,
Tour Guide
"The Democrats need to find a guy who can shoot lightning out of his fingertips. I'd vote for that guy."

Young Woman

Rachel Cone,
Freelance Writer
"One solution to the Democrats' woes is to try to attract more fat, gray-haired white men with lots of sinister connections."

Black Man

Mike Ansel,
Lawyer
"It's not as bad as it could be. The Democrats could be desperate enough to run Walter Mondale agai–oh, shit."
