"Eli Pariser The question, a friend said to me yesterday, isn't why we lose. That's obvious -- the lobbyists, the tilted battlefield, the hate. The question is, why is it that we ever win?

They let you win a few here and there to placate your anger and make you think there's a chance you'll hit the jackpot someday. Just like Vegas. Votes don't matter. Elections don't matter. The Fix is all that counts...

We win when we realize the stink that prompts us to call for change is coming from our own diapers. When we admit to that and work on changing ourselves, we'll be unstoppable.

Things have to reach critical mass like when repubs controlled both houses and the presidency and they jacked things up. All their excuses didn't help them. Now that things aren't fixed overnite they go back into their lame chant and some are dumb enough to buy into it.

Eli,
When Voters learn to use the tools of Open Government to Hold Congress Accountable, such as www.My-Representative.org the world will change very fast.
It's not the opposition that defeats you, it's your MOC, you assumed supported your wishes.
