(Quoting some bozo on DU)
>>we have got to wake up and smell the ass kicking. bill clinton has shown the way to win. most real dems say that he was a republician, well so is most of this country, well at least the one's that vote. What you have to realise is the Dems hate America. The only way they can win by deception. The only way the Dems can win is by pretending not to be Dems.
To: HighWheeler
Ed Thompson (Libertarian) took 10% of the vote, leaving the Repub with only 43%. When will libertarians, both candidates and voters, ever grow a brain? If they can't beat the Repub in the primaries, they aren't going to win the race, yet they run against the Repub and let the state go to the Dims. Idiots. No, they're smart. They're having exactly the effect they intend to have. They're only "idiots" if their intent is to elect more Republicans -- but it's not. That's *your* goal, not theirs.
*Their* goal, on the other hand, is to push American politics more towards libertarian policies. And winning is not the only way they can accomplish that. They can also accomplish that by sucking enough disaffected voters to their candidates to start affecting the election results. At that point, both major parties are going to have to start thinking about how to change their platforms to be more attractive to libertarian-leaning voters, in order to get those votes back next time around.
Republicans may not get it the first time, but if they consistently start losing elections because they've lost X% to the libertarians and that doesn't leave them enough votes to win against the Democrats, you can bet your hind end they'll start catering to those voters with more libertarian-focused policies. Mission accomplished.

That rant is especially precious, except for the brainwashing that poor unborn daughter will get...if she survives that liberal uterus.

Prediction - Landrieu cannot win the runoff - RATs are in disarray, especially if GOP takes Senate - no incentive to win ...

I guess this will make it harder for you to avoid a state Tax. Drats. I also hear that you are one of only 3 states that do not have state sanctioned gambling. But that you were all voting on it tonight. Any word on how that went? The forces of darkness are trying to wreck havic on your state.

To: Skel
