I am now officially a down ballot Democrat


I had one candidate I was very passionate about.. Martin O'Malley.. and my part as an Iowan in this part of the selection campaign is over.

I will vote for whoever is the Democratic nominee.. Good luck out there to all who still have the voting process in front of them.

My focus is now 98% down ballot.. I am going to do all I can to get our local Democrats elected or stay in office.

So I have decided to rename my position for the next 4 months.. Down Ballot Democrat..

That is where all my energies will go

Down ballot DUmmie? That a new catch phase?

Worse--far worse.  People with Down's Syndrome tend to be really, really nice people.
"Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of Liberty." - Thomas Jefferson

"All you have to do is look straight and see the road, and when you see it, don't sit looking at it - walk!" -Ayn Rand
 
"Those that trust God with their safety must yet use proper means for their safety, otherwise they tempt Him, and do not trust Him.  God will provide, but so must we also." - Matthew Henry, Commentary on 2 Chronicles 32, from Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible

"These anti-gun fools are more dangerous to liberty than street criminals or foreign spies."--Theodore Haas, Dachau Survivor

Excellent point. They don't hate every aspect of their lives and everyone else's.

LOL, so close to spitting out my coffee. H+
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Martin O'Malley? Only in a fever dream was he ever actually in the running for the Dem nomination. Talk about backing a lame horse.

All democrat candidates are gun grabbers. It's as necessary a qualification as unlimited, unrestricted, free abortions.

“We must have the courage to put our children’s safety — each and every day — ahead of the craven and morally bankrupt interests of the National Rifle Association,” O’Malley said.

Every democrat candidate and officeholder nationwide has said something almost identical.

I know, but "gun grabbing marty" has a nice ring to it.

And you dummies call us lemmings?

You know what, dummie?  You will do what you have always done. You will pull the lever for the democrat. Doesn't matter who it is, you will pull it.  It could be the antichrist, Stalin, Hitler and Pol Pot all rolled into one and you would STILL pull the lever for him/her as long as he has a D beside his/her name.

It's the DUmmie way, it's all they know, it's all they can ever be. 

Their petty, miserable lives revolve around what "Mama Government" tells them to do, in return for whatever crumbs get promised to them.  None need to be provided, just promised...
Murphy's 3rd Law:  "You can't make anything 'idiot DUmmie proof'.  The world will just create a better idiot DUmmie."

Liberals are like Slinkys.  Basically useless, but they do bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs...
 
Global warming supporters believe that a few hundred million tons of CO2 has more control over our climate than a million mile in diameter, unshielded thermo-nuclear fusion reactor at the middle of the solar system.

When one thinks of symbiotic relationships, one thinks of parasite and host. In the example of the DUmmies and mamagov, those roles get swapped back and forth as needed, and both sides seem happy with it.

It would be funny as hell if it wasn't true.
