If, in campaigning, we sink to the level of the repubicans .......
.... we stand an excellent chance of getting our asses kicked like never before.
Oh yeah?
Well ...... yeah. That's how I see it. But maybe not for the obvious reason. I think if we go as low as we think they've sink ............. we won't be close to catching them. I think the repubicans are fully prepared to plumb new depths of smear, shit flinging, lying, character assassination, and even vomit hurling against us.
And NO ONE will call them on it. They got the media. We got nuthin'.
So, am I advocating rolling over?
No.
Grow a set and start fighting.
And that goes for everyone from our candidate on down to nobodies like me.

1. Playing nice just doesn't cut it anymore.
We can play nice and make-up when we take the White House. Until then....take no prisoners.

2. You can fight like hell without getting into the mud pit with them and you're right, people are finally starting to weary of tabloid sleaze and scum parading as politics. It's only taken, what, 40 years?
Obama needs to laugh at the sleaze and keep hammering them over and over on the economy.
One thing that's good about having them standing in that mud pit while we're above it---mud gets pretty slippery and most of it will end up all over them.
Hmmm. The warped primitive must be thinking of that nuclear-bomb advertisement contrived by Bill Moyers to be used against Barry Goldwater in 1964.

4. i think if we don't start kicking some major ass soon we'll be ****ed.
the fact that obama is not WAY ahead in the polls speaks volumes--this country is filled with stupid people and they remember the low-down and dirty crap. we'd better give them some shit to remember or they'll be voting for mcasshole in droves.

16. If I wanted to be as low as a republican I would become one. I'm not. I won't become something I hate.

22. So ..... you enjoy being a loser?
Do you hate them for their policies or their campaign tactics?
