"Just Tell Them...

I have worked 40 years to make the Women's Suffrage platform broad enough for Atheists and Agnostics to stand upon, and now if need be I will fight the next 40 to keep it Catholic enough to permit the straightest Orthodox religionist to speak or pray and count her beads upon."

Stay Home, Don't Vote? ....Not Sure What To Say Except... No Wonder....

.... there's no policy change for the civil rights of GLBT citizens.

And, no wonder .... Dem women are losing ground.

And, no wonder the Dem electorate can't understand the White House's message about why they should vote. (Against the Chamber of Commerce, WTF?)

One has to conclude, at this point, that the President's handlers are deliberately throwing 2010. So that he won't have to take all the blame from here on out. Cuz if they shut down the gay vote, the women's vote and the Blue Dawg vote... they will lose big time.

GOTV is now SHDV? "Stay Home Don't Vote?"

With friends like these who needs enemies?

Blue Dawgs Storm Out in Anger: "We Have Been Lied To!"


As reported at "The Hill."

"If the two sides cannot reach an agreement, the only hope for passage of the bill in the House will be to go straight to the floor, an option leaders shied away from endorsing but said was an option.

But the Blue Dogs issued dire warnings to leaders contemplating that approach.

"Waxman simply does not have votes in committee and process should not be bypassed to bring the bill straight to floor,” Rep. Mike Ross (D-Ark.), the lead Blue Dog negotiator, said on Friday. “We are trying to save this bill and trying to save this party.”

Melancon said there would be 40-45 “solid no” votes from the 52-strong Blue Dogs, among other problems throughout the caucus. And Melancon said there are more Democrats who will vote against the bill."


Trying to "save this party?"

Whoa. Things must be worse than we are allowed to know...
