Mean Old Party

From Fred Thompson to Sarah Palin, snarling Rudy Giuliani to smiling Lindsey Graham, Republicans bared their fangs this week to hide their unpopular agenda. And it might work.

    And you call conservatives stupid.

    Let's see. The left destroyed and divided their party, for no good reason, a candidate that had

    1. been an instrumental part of the best Administration of our lifetimes.

    2. actually HAD accomplished and worked her butt off for progressive causes

    3. Actually HAD taken on the GOP attack machine -and won -three entire times. Three!

    4.was mopping McCain with the floor and handily set to beat him in states Dems hadn't won in 3 elections: Kentucky, Ohio, Florida, Colorado. West Va. Heck even Oklahoma was in play again.

    And you did this for what? An overly ambitious ,pocket lining lightweight named Hussein-Obama who gave a fancy Iraq speech for the benefit of not you, but his Iranian fundraisers.

    I told you the GOP would destroy him in a week. I was wrong. It took two days

    Most pathetic is the way you're all now groveling for the Clinton's to save you from yourselves. They can't even if they wanted to now. Ostriches can't be saved.

    Your extremist,cowardly attacks on the middle-left and insistance on an entirely ridiculous candidate make you worthy of the humiliation the GOP will continue to dump on you.

    In the end Barrack Obama will get no more than 4 or 5 states. If that. There IS no youth vote that can save you.

    You deserve what you're getting now. And don't worry if if you learn from this,in four years yet more foolish little children will make the same mistake. This has been going on for 30 years as the lunatic fringe insisting they were the REAL Democrats alienated one constituency after another. This time you lost working Moms and hispanics. There IS no recovery.
