40. I don't equate them

I just wish Gore and the party had fought harder, rather than being polite. No turmoil from that can compare with the following 20 some years. I understand his impulse away from conflict, but we got conflict anyway. Possibly termianl harm.

When has a democrat ever stood up to a lying Rethug and yelled "You lie!" like one did to Obama? I bet that brought in votes for the Rethug, just for the passionate drama.

Humans are usually more emotional than rational. The reich-wing is better at pushing emotional hot buttons. They know that rage and fear become addictive. What can we counter that with? Honest question.
