These People Are Voting - Are You?
From Steve Benen of the Washington Monthly:
I’m not a Democrat, though I helped elect a Democratic President in 2008. I’ve not always been happy with this President and congress, but guess what? My wife doesn’t supply sex on demand and I didn’t get a Unicorn when I was 7, either. Expectations are a bitch and life sucks sometimes, but you got to keep moving forward.
Last night I got to participate in a conference call with Dave Plouffe, the 2008 Obama campaign strategist. No, I’m not special. My sh!t smells just like yours. There were probably 1000’s of Ohio progressives and Democratic campaign worker bees on the call.
But this election is special. In many districts and states the contrast between the more of the same candidate and the insane candidate is stark. Not only am I voting for more of the same, I’ll be working GOTV for the Democrats again this year to keep the batsh!t insane and their enablers, like our own Steve Chabot, from moving back into the Congress.
The shi!theads want you to stay home.
All you sane people, they want you to not vote.
All you who can see the difference between Angle and Reid and Toomey and Sestak and Chabot and Dreihaus. The creeps like Campaign For Working Families are spreading lies. It is truly remarkable and scary these people have any influence at all, but they do. Money buys influence.
We got feet. And brains. And one vote each. So this would be a good time to wipe the drool of your chin and wake up. Do not to let them have their chance to fvck this country back to the dark ages. Get your rageboner up and help Get Out The Vote.
