Elizabeth Dole; "Our worst fears realized if Dems take Senate".
Elizabeth Dole sent out an urgent fundraising letter to Republicans the other day, warning of "dire consequences", if Democrats retake control of the Senate in 2006.

Our worst fears will be realized if Democrats take control of the Senate. This is what will happen if they do. They will increase your taxes, call for endless investigations, congressional censure, and maybe impeachment of President Bush. They will put the war on terror on the "back burner", and quite possibly could take the White House in 2008.

She also added that she needs immediate financial help to prevent the most liberal Democratic party in history from seizing the Senate.

All I can say is, I hope it happens!!!

...and last night on Scarborough Country, Chris Matthews predicted this EXACT TACTIC coming from Karl Rove.

12. No, that wasn't the purpose of my post...
...I'm just directing anyone interested to a larger discussion on the topic.

There are those on DU who love to admonish others. I'm not one of those people.

7. Libby
Libby must be getting old. She forgot the Republicans BOGGEST fear, namely that there will be oversight and bids in defense contracts, and that the $750 billion yearly defense budget will be cut.

10. No wonder why she's been doing nothing for my state
She's been writing this kind of stuff instead of standing up for the good people of North Carolina. And that other senator of mine. Oh...:eyes: How did we EVER elect him. (Burr)

13. What is Elizabeth Dole on? She is spending too much time sniffing
her husband's soiled Depends underwear.

What a whore this woman is for the Republican Party. What good has she ever done for anyone other than herself and her interests?

Elizabeth Dole is why we need to have term limits, she does nothing for the people she is supposed to represent, yet she pulls her fat ass up to the public trough year after year for handouts.

What a shrew.

14. OMG! Orange jump-suits all! And no more tax cuts. My dear, however will
Repugs "make-ends-meet?" Sell Exxon portfolios, or second-mortgage that "spare" house in the Hamptons for legal fees?

15. Comical how the "worst fear" is a Dem Senate . . .
when they always scream about the Dems'/libs' "worst fear" is a "religious man" in the White House, as opposed to a "nukular holocaust" . . .

Call her on it! "Their worst fear is a Democratic-controlled Senate. Wonder what happened to Osama?"

18. So why isn't every Republican receiving this letter
not saying to themselves, "Well, if they are innocent of all the crimes and excesses Dems are going to go after, what's the problem, why is it their worse fears? If they didn't do anything wrong, why are they so scared?" Isn't that their usual refrain with the wiretapping and spying? If you've done nothing wrong, why should it bother you? Ha, so the Republicans are scared huh? Then I guess they are guilty and afraid of being charged....


As far as the war, over 60% want it to end, so who is she speaking to there?

21. Fear is the current divisive card.
To paraphrase H.L. Menken, "No Republican ever lost votes by trying to divide people." I continue to be amazed at how out of touch they are with their allegedly Christian teachings.

22. they'll keep doing it until it stops working
and its been working great since 1994. that's TWELVE YEARS, people.

the target group for this fundraising scare is older,christian (not neccessariliy fundy), middle class conservatives with some money in the bank, who get all their information from fox news. all their lives they grew up indoctrinated with a fear of 'the other', whether it be ruskies/commies or miscagenating negroes. now the muslim terrorist & the dreaded Liberal has effectively been substituted as the enemy.

basically, my parents.

fear is the mind-killer.
