What's wrong with Democrats?

After eight years in the wilderness, the Democratic Party figured out how to retake power in Washington with the 2008 election of Barack Obama.

So what is the party working on now?

A commission will now recommend new ways for the party to pick its candidates.

Perhaps to avoid ending up with another embarrassment like Obama?

"This Commission will focus on reform that improves the presidential nominating process to put voters first and ensure that as many people as possible can participate," said DNC Chairman Tim Kaine.

So what are you saying, Tim? A bunch of elitist party bosses and special interest groups picked Obama in 2008?

The Democratic Change Commission will address three issues: 1) changing the window of time during which primaries and caucuses may be held 2) reducing the number of superdelegates and 3) improving the caucus system, according to the Democratic National Committee.

The 35-member commission must issue its report and recommendations to the DNC Rules and Bylaws Committee no later than January 1, 2010.
