I just have to get into this, as it seems to be the season for Republicans to chain themselves to a boat anchor, and hold on for the long ride to the ocean floor.
NOT ONE OF US.
It is the Republican message for 2008. Fortunately, it seems to be falling not only short, but being a net negative for those using it. The voters not already in the GOP boat are rejecting this tactic this season, overwhelmingly, and the polling shows this to be the case.
It's why I encouraged Glen and local yokels to ride that Ayers/Wright/Rezko bomb like Slim Pickens fallin' out of that B-52 over Russia.
It's got FAIL written all over it.
Why?
We're all Americans. McCarthy does not need ressurection, regardless of Ann-the-Bad-Footnoter's adoration for Joe-the-Commie-Hunter. And we many Americans who do not agree with this worldview of the opposition being the enemy, and not the opposition? Well, we're actually very, very pissed off about it. And, we're voting like crazed ACORN registrants, EVERYWHERE.
I call it the Bachmann Gambit. It's why Michelle Bachmann has gone from being a sure bet to hold her seat in the MN-6 to being on track to lose by 5+ points -- and that slide happened in the matter of two weeks. I'm just disappointed that Marsha Blackburn didn't try to out-Bachmann Bachmann this week.
"If the Godless Americans PAC threw a party in [my] honor, would [I] go?" Fuck yeah, I'd go. They'd probably have good food, good beer and more than a few good jokes to tell. If I were running for U.S. Senate seat? Absolutely. Why should Americans of any faith -- or of no faith -- be excluded from the political process?
Another Republican who needs to be heard is Saxby Chambliss, of Georgia. With a little encouragement, I think he can take the Bachmann Gambit this weekend.

Let me join in your plea to any and all gods, goddesses, deities, spirits, Powers and whatever dreams there be, that Sen. Saxby be dribbled off to the equipment room of superannuated legislative persons.
I have reason to loathe and contemptify him beyond the extent usual for persons of his party and ilk. I, um, know people named Chambliss and they would like to see their names in print without the words "Says Something Stupid" attached to them in the headlines.
Used to be, the only public figure associated with the name was a middlin-decent ballplayer. Chris would probably like Saxby to wander off and get lost too. :)
