4. Why play into their Rope-A-Dope?

Obama played a brilliant, a stellarly brilliant, Rope-A-Dope this last week on marriage equality. The Repukes took the sucker punch full force. (Need I say that that issue may have profound repercussions.)

There are too damned many worry warts here who want us to go nuclear. Why in the Sam Hell would anybody advocate that when our opposition has been going nuclear for over a year. Rmoney said he wasn't going to set his hair on fire. But that is precisely what the fucking Repukes have been doing for months and months and months.

Obama just has to keep doing what he's doing. In case you haven't noticed he's taking on the Repuked head on.

Trust. We have six months. In the meantime, work and give until it hurts to take back the House and preserve the Senate.
