What Qualifies as Demagoguery?

Below is an article on the subject that tends to support my assertion.
Note the description of unidimensionality as a key trait of the demagogue.
Can anyone honestly hold that the democrats have engaged in honest debate by offering alternative views and policies?
Next and strong kin to the first is scapegoating. All I am hearing from democrats is Bush is bad and we can’t win etc. Their message is simplistic and ignores the reality of the situation in Iraq and indeed worldwide with regard to terrorism.
Read the article below and see what I mean.
