I was there this AM. No phoniness about her. Her concern is genuine. For the cynics, why would she fake it with so much to lose? She gave each of us veterans the stage to say why we supported her. I said that the last time I was this engaged in a political campaign was for Ronald Reagan and I expect the same result for my efforts.
Ran into a heckler before the press conference who started yelling at me about Joe Miller wanting to privatize VA. Truthfully, I didn’t have the foggiest idea of what he was talking about, and said so. Well, that really set him off. I calmly asked him if politics has forced us into yelling at each other. His answer was anemphatic, hate-filled YES.
Knowing a lost cause and with more important things to do, I decided to ignore the temptation. I suppose it was too much to ask him to take his head out of his seat and listen.
First time I have come face-to-face with the enemy. Time to lock and load, figuratively.
This is the way it is here. The lib progressive priority #1 is to take out O’Donnell. You are right, she is genuine. Fight harder! Convert people and get them to vote for her. Make yourself uncomfortable doing so. It is worth it. This is how she beat Castle. Christine needs people like you.
