There are plenty of real Democrats who could and would run and win, were it not for the active sabotage by Obama, and other DINOs of the DLC.
Anyone who was alive 40 years ago, or who has parents and grandparents who were alive, remembers how much better life was before conservatives took over control of the government (conservatives in both the Republican and the Democratic parties).
Obama is a DINO.
During the 2008 campaign, Obama told people that they had to stay involved after the election, that they couldn't just vote for him, go away for four years and expect that he would do what they had hoped. He said that there were powerful interests working against what the people wanted, and if We The People wanted Obama to do our bidding, we would have to MAKE HIM DO IT.
Obama's 'most ardent supporters' forget that those of us who criticize Obama are only doing what he warned us needed to be done. NOT to trust him.
We heard then and we listen carefully now to ObamaSpeak. It's essentially BushSpeak; deceptive rhetoric, focus-group tested and chosen words to lead supporters to believe he means one thing when he means something entirely different.
Whereas Bush needed a team of speechwriters and public relations handlers to do it, Obama can rely on his training as a lawyer to help him get through a press conference of 5 or 6 softball questions every few months. It's the reason Obama speaks slowly and deliberately when he's off-teleprompter (which is rarely ever these days). In case you didn't know, he even is using a teleprompter for meetings with corporate CEOs in the White House these days:
CHRIS MATTHEWS: You know, sometimes, I really support the president in a lot of his views—in fact, all of them almost. But I have to tell you, Michael, if he doesn‘t get rid of that teleprompter, it‘s like an eye test. He‘s just reading words now. It‘s separating him from us. Your thoughts. You go to a meeting with him, I‘m told. Businessmen are invited to meet them at the White House, he hauls out the damn teleprompter. And he reads it to them. Well, why even bring people into the room, just have the teleprompter. I sense it‘s getting between him and us. And I thought the speech last night was a terrible, or a great example rather of him using the teleprompter instead of his heart and his mind. He was reading words to us that any president could have written, had written for him and delivered.

Since the election (and even before, with his FISA vote), Obama's given us every reason to distrust and doubt him. He's been deceptive, breaking every campaign pledge and promise, conceding the positions of the left (getting nothing in return), and hobbling real Democrats at every turn while making Republicans and Blue Dogs stronger (and harder to beat in 2010 and 2012).
Obama's 'most ardent supporters' (like you) are the most immediate problem, as
