With the battle for control of Congress turning on relatively few close races for the House and Senate, the Democrats are arguing internally about what they should stand for...

Q: What do the Democrats stand for?

A: Not much.

The Dems' tactics just keep geting more and more outlandish. They're screeching unprecedented nonsense now. A clear sign of just how desperate they have become.

Another memo from the "Axis of Evil II:" Carville, Begala, and Shrum!!

Interesting that another one of these memos has made it into the press. I wonder if Zell Miller is helping out a bit.

Big surprise. After Sept. 11th people aren't buying into the DemonRat hype anymore and their attempts to politicize what happened are backfiring badly.

So much for the news media theory that integrity and values are dead and that lying, cheating, and stealing are OK because "everybody" (Bubba) is doing it.

Q: What do the Democrats stand for?

That has never been important or relevant. The Dems getting the masses to percieve that they stand for something is their only mission. They don't have to live by what they say in public, just make people think they care. Their next priority is to make their useful idiots forget that in previous elections, they promised them everything but delivered nothing.

The purpose of the opposition party is to oppose. That is the parliamentary system. We seem to be heading that way. There is less and less variance between presidential strength in districts and local party strength. That has its plusses and minuses.

I saw on Fox News that they were putting all their gun control issues way aside.

How fake they are.

Roger Hickey, co-director of the Campaign for America's Future, a liberal Democratic advocacy group.

Check them out: www.ourfuture.org

They are pushing psychiatric patient David Brock's book, babbling about Enron and crying over " profiteering in the name of patriotism."

That will inspire the troops.

It's sure is the party of Bill Clinton, and the DNC chairman he appointed, (Terry McAuliffe), is nothing but a hack, he has nothing to offer but smear tactics that don't work. He would be a much better used car salesman than a DNC chairman

Now that their politicization of 9/11 backfired, the only thing they have elft to do is go for the "everyone does it defense" to save face.

So now there will be a load of seminar callers telling us how "both sides need to quit politicizing 9/11." That way, they can hopefully divert some of the annoyance towards the right by pretending that both sides were just as involved in drumming this up as a political issue.

Oops, that was poorly written. Try this:

That way, they can hopefully divert some of the annoyance at the left's poster boys onto the right by pretending that both sides were just as involved in drumming this up as a political issue.

But in a strongly worded memorandum last week, the Democratic Leadership Council lectured Democratic leaders against retreating on the issue. Pointing out that every poll shows national security and homeland defense at the top of voter concerns, "this is a particularly bad time for Democrats to go brain-dead on security," the DLC said.

In other words, the only thing they can do is publicly support the president. Which means we win either way. Bwa-ha-haa!

A separate series of focus-group polls to test issues for the Democrats showed that "only on terrorism and security do Democrats lose," Democratic strategists James Carville, Stanley Greenberg and Robert Shrum wrote in a memo.

Which, of course, is completely different from the results of every PUBLICLY-AVAILABLE poll. Add all the Special Sauce you want, guys. It won't make it true.
