61. I know right?

Mar 2013

A God's-Honest Liberal getting elected in a God's-Honest RED State is a near-total repudiation of the very IDEA of Democratic Third Way Politiking (that we have to kneel down, sell out to Wall Street and cut a deal in order to get anything useful out of the People's Government).

Seems to be that at least SOMEONE thinks that Ashley Judd winning that seat would be almost as bad for the Democratic Party as it would for the REPUBLICAN Party.

Therefore, I say we send her some money.

Do it Ashley.
