This notion that the Dems don't have any solid ideas, in my opinion, just isn't true. Especially on terrorism. Yes, the Dems have had some issues, but I don't think they lack "ideas". I think they have, at least up until now, lacked solid leadership that can brand the party together and move them in one direction. This is why this election is so important. The nominee, and hopefully the new President, whether that be Hillary or Obama, has to be a visionary and set the course for the party for the next 8 years, if not more.

The Democratic party has been hijacked by the super left. Their party positions do not reflect the the general position of the everyday democratic folks. The same has really starting taking shape in the Republican party but it is not quite as pronounced. I am pretty dubious that any of the current candiates are prepared to take hold of the democratic party and instill some moderation. I have more hopes for the republicans because the debacle with Bush has potentially opened some eyes. We'll see. I still have not even remotely heard one idea from the democrats on what to do about terrorism.
