Poll question: Are the Dems going for the Republican jugular now?
Are the Dems going for the Republican jugular too little, too much, or just right.

They're practically laying there asking for it.

5. What's it gonna take?
I would hope that ten or so years of softballing the Rethugs would teach the Democratic leadership a Chamberlainesque lesson on appeasing fascism.

I say take no prisoners. For our country's sake.

7. If WE ALLOW the Dems to sit back and wait, they will use their near
absolute control of the media to make everything our fault, and the sheep will go right along with it. The Democratic Party had better get moving right now, time is growing short.

9. Or maybe we offer then a nice tub of water to soak in...
I'm one who'd rather not sit and wait. I'd prefer to help them along.

Taste of their own medicine. Whatever they do to hit us - we HIT THEM BACK HARDER.

Take a lesson from the most capable Kristin Powers the other night on "That-guy-whose-name-rhymes-with-Vanity & Colmes" -

4. They still control the news media
we can't let up. Here in Ohio, the coverage of the races is still very slanted. Rove is in the state at least every month, helping develop media strategies.

With Labor Day just around the corner, look for the Ohio GOP to go on attack heavily and for the news media here to drop any coverage of anything negative about the GOP.

6. I would have poreferred to choose 'waaaaay too little'
I want wall to wall fighting and jugular cutting. I want our side to pick fights and keep fighting. We have lots of things that we can fight for and about. And we have no need to make shit up. The truth and the facts and the science are *all* on our side.

12. Some are, some are not
we can never, ever be united.

Too many DEMS have their own personal agenda.

Say what you want about the pukes but it seems like they always stick together no matter what.

That is how we need to be.
