Over 200 Democrats show 'what it looks like when Democrats go on offense'

Last night in Kentucky, Democratic Senate candidate Jack Conway had a debate with his opponent, teabagger Rand Paul. From all reports, Conway was on the offense. So much so that Paul would not shake his hand after the debate. The TODAY Show ran that clip this morning. And, Kentucky bloggers are calling it Paul's "temper tantrum."

Staying on the offense, Conway just sent out this email to the Progressive Change Campaign Committee list. It's good stuff. Conway and over 200 other Democrats are acting like Democrats:

Rand Paul, the Tea Party leader running against me for Senate in Kentucky, thinks Social Security is unconstitutional. Other Republicans across the nation are also campaigning on privatization and Social Security cuts.

With a Tea Party deep on the fringe, the way for Democrats to win in 2010 is to have a spine -- and go on offense.

That's why today, I am proud to announce with my friends at the Progressive Change Campaign Committee that over 200 congressional candidates and members of Congress are promising to oppose any cuts to Social Security

1. DC reporters once again show how out of touch they are. Many
of National Republican Suck-Ups were taking Paul's
side and putting down Conway.
