How are we going to punish pro-Alito weak dems?
We should be sure to fund thier Democratic primary challengers in the next cycle.

$50 to challenge each Senator nyone who votes to confim
$30 to challenge Senators who vote for cloture (end filibuster)

Who's with me? Maybe we could form a PAC to punish those who didn't stand up for
the checks on executive power and civil rights.

4. We can remake the party by throwing out the spineless.
We have fearless Dean in the chairmanship. We can take back our party.

8. How can this one be too spineless with Dean at the head

and Reid as the Minority Leader.

Murtha's a Dem. He's not spineless.
Boxer's a Dem. She's not spineless.
Gore's a Dem. He's not spineless.
Feingold's a Dem. He's not spineless.
Kennedy's a Dem. He's not spineless.
Kerry's a Dem. He's not spineless
