Priorities
I would love to see a poll of liberal pundits asking which of the following is (a) most important, and (b) most realistic:
1. Impeaching Bush.
2. Election reform--i.e. electronic voting, voter suppression, electoral college, redistricting, etc.
3. Re-taking the House of Representatives and/or the Senate.
It seems to me that everything liberals need or want to accomplish is dependant on achieving item number 2, and it’s silly to talk about number 1 without achieving both 2 and 3 first.
As far as fantasies like "insurrection" and "revolution" are concerned, I think the Blue states seceding would be a more satisfying goal.
