Mark L. says of the Democratic base: "It's not mobilizing now for much of anybody."

Well, I have no connection with the internal workings of the Democratic Party, 
being neither a member nor a supporter, but I do know that more people have 
attended rallies for Clinton, Obama, Edwards et al during the last year than 
have attended antiwar rallies, BY FAR. So SOMEbody is mobilizing for somebody. 
MANY unions have already endorsed candidates in the Democratic primary, and I'm 
going to guess that there will be more union people working in an official 
capacity mobilizing Democratic voters on behalf of one candidate or other on 
Thursday in Iowa than have worked on antiwar rallies or similar events in a long 
time.
