Funny, but I’ve never looked at it as a quest for power. I always looked at it as doing the right things for my country. DemonRats desire power, I just desire a free country where we do the right things.
Well, all due respect, that's very poetic. But power is necessary in achieving that, even if it's simply to deny power to those who don't share your goals. If they don't have the ball, someone has to.
