the right caters to that - can't nice centrists like us send a little
love to the left?  like Kucinich, Sanders is underappreciated.  If we
lose those voices, Obama's only going to hear the bankers and the
generals...

somebody trying to be voluble, noticeable and consistent for hope and
change doesn't get the same respect, credibility or even attention as
the opponents of these things get from this administration, even
though that was the platform.  It's got to be frustrating.
