Republicans will be out for blood this election as they were in 04

I wonder how many people realize that.

The idea that "negative campainging doesn't work" is beyond foolish. It's been proven time and time again that it does. I'm not one for voting for a candidate because I think they are "electable". I think that's a lousy campaing platform and it never EVER works.

Looking at the field of candidates There's maybe two or three that I find right on the issues and even less that can handle the right wing mudslinging. Running a platform of bipartisianship, compromise and I like the others guy just doesn't work when the other guy is ripping your throat out.

That strategy just doesn't resonate with the country by and large.

1. I agree 100% with you.

Negative campaigning works wonders. This Bi-partisanSHIT that I am hearing about is absurd.
The GOP will be out to not only get us, but if they could, put us in the "ovens". They are extremists of the worse kind. We have to fight them "tooth and nail" if we want a victory next fall.

2. The red/blue divide will incite the mouth-breathers.

No wonder they call us bed wetters.

4. I'm talking about offense

Kucinich in that debate fired shots at all those candidates on their votes. The only person who fired back was Richardson who was in no position to vote on anything.

No one on the stage is going to survive the mud slinging spare two. Ignoring those kinds of attacks will bury them.

6. We will face very nasty duo, Mitt "the shovel" and Lynne Cheney "the junk yard pit bull". Two of

their toughest campaigners. Right now IMO we have a 49 to 51% chance of taking the WH in 08.
