From Ted McLaughlin at jobsanger:
President Obama hit the campaign trail last Friday with a great speech in Illinois. He is planning to campaign hard for Democratic candidates this year.
I think we can take three important things from this.
1. In spite of what the talking heads on cable news would have you believe, the Democratic Party is not leaderless. It has a great leader — Barack Obama. And he will be the party’s leader until someone new captures the support of most Democrats.
2. There are no perfect policies or politicians, but we don’t need perfection. We just need to make things better, because better is always good.
3. It is up to us, the voters, to make things better in this country — and we do that by voting for better candidates.
