Oh right. No one ever says there's no difference between the two parties. No one here has recently claimed that Kerry is a Republican, either. I just make this shit up.
I don't know why you & your comrades keep ignoring the second part of my standard formula. So, let me repeat this, in words as close to one syllable as I can manage: There are some differences between the D & R parties. They make a difference in people's lives and should not be dismissed. But there are enough similarities that having a Dem in power that it makes people more open to a radical analysis because they're more likely to see The System as a problem rather than a party or personnel.
