Didn't agree two weeks ago, but I do now... Dems should keep quiet!!

[Dawgs]

If you don't agree, then look at the three big stories over the past weeks.

1) Miers nomination and withdrawal --> The Republicans can't blame it on the Dems cause' it was a Bush nominee, and the right didn't like her anyways.
Even so, Coulter tried when she said Reid suggested Miers to Bush

2) Fitz and Plame scandal --> Republicans would love to smear Fitz as a Dem, but they can't cause' he's neither a Dem or Pub.
Even so, Coulter tried smearing Dems by claiming that Pubs aren't smearing Fitz, when the Dems smeared Starr.

3) Delay Indictment --> Delay and Lawyer's only defense is to attack Dem Prosecutor and Dem Judge.

I say to all Dems, just sit back, enjoy, and don't say a damn thing til next year... then come out with a Democratic 'contract for America'.

1. when the dems do say something they are then attack

by all, including our people too. nope,....doesnt behoove those that do speak out. though i value every dem that does

2. Muttering ruefully about the Republican Culture of Cronies & Corruption

is however helpful, I would venture.

It helps establish the meme, and cement an ugly truth: our government has been stolen by a selfish cabal of cronies who have comitted Wholesale Treason for petty political and profit-mongering reasons.

3. I say kick them while they're down

but do it productively.

4. Fitzgerald is A Repugnican

He was nominated for his Chicago post by former GOOP Senator Peter Fitzgerald (no relation).

How delicious the irony.

6. He is not. He is strictly independent. Registered independent, etc.

5. NO! Enough with "contract" framing! Don't buy into Republican framing!

You had a great post and blew in the last three words.

The Democratic party needs a positive upbeat platform with broad buyin.

7. Every now and then you have to give a crook enough rope to hang

himself. Especially when you know he is arrogant, ignorant, and on self destruct. You let him act badly. When the time is right, you then go in for the kill. So timing is everything.
