This election is a binary event. Calling for Obama's defeat *IS* advocating for Romney's victory.

100. AND, as any long term Party Activist KNOWS,

...election season is the ONLY time to get your issues in the Party Platform,
and the BEST time to get your favorite politician to go on the "I support" record.

Loyal Democratic activists have always accomplished this by:
*making a lot of noise to generate Public Support for an Issue,

*demanding accountability for broken campaign promises,

*loudly expressing dis-satisfaction with areas of performance,

*TRUMPETING Traditional Working Class Democratic Values.

Pretending that everything is just peachy,
and keeping quiet has NEVER gotten a single issue in a Party Platform,
or motivated a single politician to address anything.


If you want a "Pony" (EFCA, re-negotiation of NAFTA & ALL Free Trade Treaties, active support of UNIONS, direct MASSIVE Economic Stimulus for the Working Class, protection for American JOBS, Hands OFF Social Security, Expansion of Medicare or at least a Public Option)
better ask for it NOW,
because that door will be shut after the election.

Unfortunately, there are those here without the long term experience of Party Activists
who will naively try to equate fighting FOR traditional Democratic Values as supporting Republicans.
Of course, that is laughably ABSURD.



You will know them by their WORKS,
not by their excuses.
