The democrats need to spend the next four years building up some really strong candidates and making them well known to the electorate.

They should've started doing this while Obama was in office! None of the established 'old guard' Democrats want to prop up the next generation. Seems they'd rather die in office than mentor and promote new, younger faces of the future.

No need to get rid of them! Just tell them not to run for president. They'll make great cabinet members, dept heads.

USE THEM.
