10 Words To Define The Democratic Message

From: Hotline On Call
Gov. Tom Vilsack (D-IA) asked members of his Heartland PAC community to come up with ten words that defined what the Democratic Party stood for. Stands for. Believes in. Message. Etc.
5,000 submissions were considered.

Today, the PAC announced the 10 finalists and their words. (Vote for your favorite, here.)
We're not going to comment on them, except to say that we're very glad not a single one of them incorporated a Shrumian "fighting for" formulation.
