Quite. Take a good look at the Fortune 500 and see how many are "run" by
Republicans.


That's because they are "productive" -- a concept that the Democratic

Party
should be embracing, rather than disdaining.


Actually, most Fortune 500's do not have Repub's as CEO's, particularly in
the tech and comm sectors. CEO's, by and large, get where they are by
politicing, and that's something Repub's don't do worth a damn.


Take this to the bank: If the Democratic Party would lose their
"I'm-a-victim-and-you-owe-me" wing of their party, they would easily be

able
to attract a majority of Fortune 500 CEOs, if only as a reaction to the
Republican Party's swing toward the Religious Right. In my opinion, the
vast majority of Republicans are quite uneasy with the direction their

party
is going, and are ripe for the picking.


The Repub's constituency is in the middle class and with self-employed...the
highly denigrated bourgeoisie.

As the Democrats stand today, however, few productive members of society

can
support them.


Exactly.
