I don’t know how they’ll do it, but the Dems must attack everywhere, take the state legislatures and governor’s chairs as well as the U.S. Senate and House. If we lose ground in the states, we’re just as screwed as if we lose ground in D.C.

And I know I’m not some voice in the wilderness with this. The Dems will be pulling out all stops to, figuratively, attack and slaughter the Party of Goddamned Traitors everywhere.
