What a load of crap! I'm so surprised! As usual, the architects of Democratic Defeat over the past 20 years cower in their booties while being unable to communicate a simple and effective message that a solid majority of
Americans agree with which is: no spying on innocent American citizens! Even if a majority did not agree today, it is extremely important to make loud and clear our opposition to such a major infringement on the rights of American citizens and such an extraordinary and illegal usurpation of power on the part of the executive branch. I've worked with our DC consultant corps and they are a bunch of careerist chickens. They don't understand regular people and they have been responsible for blowing almost all of the Presidential and Congressional elections of the past 20 years. To hell with them! The reason the negative sterotype of weak Democrats exists is because of this lilly-livered, wimpy, cowardly kind of approach. If Democrats had backbone they would stomp the Republicans every time. That was what swift boating Kerry was all about, that's what it is always about: putting the chickenhearts on display. Our DC consultant corps is willing every time to dance to the GOP tune because they have no clue how to dominate and control the debate or even how to frame an issue: any issue. To hell with em!
