After what we have seen tonight it is clear.
We must set aside all differences.

We must go to the Polls in November, and we must elect Barack Obama at all costs.

There is no other choice, there is no other alternative. This is about the very survival of this Republic.

If these two people take control of this country, there will BE NO COUNTRY. As Malloy pointed out earlier in his broadcast tonight, this is a Cancer that must be excised from the body of this nation.

NOW.

Obama was not my choice. (Mine was Kucinich) While I believe and maintain we have much work to do to fix our party and it's leadership, we must stop the bleeding.

This country is finished if they are not stopped.

It is no longer about "Yes, We Can!"

WE MUST.

Our very survival as a nation depends on it.

4. They really don't do they?

That was about as nasty and tasteless, not to mention classless, a performance as you will ever see.

It is clear that this is NOT a person that needs to be a heartbeat away from the head of the PTA, much less the Presidency. These people are so completely arrogant and transparent, they think it isn't even necessary to be inconspicuous.

Tonight this lunatic Stepford Nightmare which crowed and smarmed at me only sparked ONE THING.

My sense of self-preservation.

I will be there at the Polls with you this November, my friend.

Not in the same location of course, but I will be there.

I don't know if you have ever seen Zack Snyder's remake of Dawn Of The Dead, but there is a scene where one of the characters, Nicole, is trapped at the store across the street, and she she is screaming for her life as she is about to be attacked, and everyone is standing around on the top of the Mall Roof, frozen in fear, not knowing what to do.

Sarah Polley's character, Ana, with a cold, determined look on her face, very calmly says:

"We Need To Do Something. NOW."

Tonight was my Sarah Polley moment.

This foolishness has got to stop.

Enough Is Enough.

7. Last week when they went, she is the candidate I went
they've got to be fucking kidding me! (When we were there during the summer, the guide at Juneau told us about her, and that she was on the short list... and back then I went they've got to be kidding me!}

Yes this has to stop

Could be pretty accomplished at anticipating their moves, but I am with you nadin, this simply was THE most :wtf: moment in American Political History.

There is NO WAY we can allow this to happen to our country.

As Patrick Stewart would say, THIS is where we must Draw The Line.

THIS FAR....NO FARTHER!

Tonight one of my closest friends shook his head at me and said "Either they are trying to lose, or they are going to steal the Election yet again."

One of the biggest criticisms of Obama is that he is a great speaker but offers no substance.

The only substance I saw in this woman was hate, arrogance, and utter contempt. I know she didn't scare you as much as some of the others did, but what should have scared you the most is the people lapping it all up like robots.

You have often said there was going to be another Civil War in this country.

One need only look a that crowd tonight to see that you are correct.

11. Alas, poor trolls...
...many of them burn so brightly, yet so briefly.


In other words... gone fission.

9. And what does your Candidate have to offer, you worthless piece of shit.
Why don't you illustrate that for us? Or are you just another mindless piece of trash that can only function once Limbaugh and Hannity have told you what to think for today?

What exactly is McCain? If you want our soldiers to be in Iraq for another hundred years, why don't you stop wasting everyone's time posting poorly thought out insults on the Internet and GO DIE FOR YOUR CAUSE? Put your life on the line and your money where your mouth is.

And if memory serves me correctly, Kucinich was the ONLY one who was willing to make a stand to IMPEACH the giggling murderer you no doubt support.

No, do you wish to play some more, or are you done getting your ass spanked and are quite ready to slither back to the trailer park you crawled out of?

17. I've never seen my mother so freaked out about anything political.
She keeps e-mailing me about Palin -- "Oh my god -- what a loon!" "How do we stop them?!" "I feel nauseous!," etc.

I think in the past she's thought that I've taken political things too seriously, but this extremist freak from Alaska has rattled my mom's cage like nobody else.
