Justin,

I admire the idealism, and I agree that the Dems have disappointed or ignored key constituents. But why not work to change the party? Let's face it the Bible-thumping faction of the Republican party are usually disappointed by their party leaders after an election, but I don't see them abandoning the battlefield or raising a new army (sorry for the militarized metaphors).
