Poll
Question: Where should the party go to rebuild its big tent part of its base?
#1
Try to rebuild its social credit wing in the peripheral south by running a candidate in 2012 that downplays Iraq, Gay Marriage and Abortion and focus on Universal Healthcare and Employee's Rights
 
#2
Try to build into the west by deemphasizing health care and taxes, but focuses on civil liberties, property rights and the end to the war...this way they can emphasize the GOP's neo-con leanings while trying to build a antithesis to it.
 
#3
Just push to the center as far as possible- accept that conservativism is what most americans want, but appeal to the need to maintain a two-party system that will give us a slower transition to free trade and stronger defense
 
#4
Keep pushing leftward to give Americans an alternative...eventually the GOP will royally mess us and we will be the only ones standing

Could you expand on the part regarding property rights?  For some reason, I can't see Democrats going back on their environmentalist constituency in favor of ranchers, farmers, and other landowners.
