Last night was a call to War.
I am so angry at what happened last night in St. Paul, that I have not been able to sleep. Their attacks last night were beyond anything I have ever seen. They should truly be ashamed of themselves. They claim to be the party of Abraham Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt and I am sure both of them are spinning in their graves. Even Reagan did not go to this level.

The Republican party has shown itself to be what we long expected them to be. A bunch of hateful, un-educated, judgmental fuckwits that have no business having a platform for their bigotry and lies. I thought I was watching a Klan rally. I was wondering why they had stooped to this level, but then it hit me:

It is the only thing they have left.

Fear, Anger and Hatred is the only thing Bullies have left. They are not talking about issues like Poverty, the Economy or National Security. They are now demoted to speaking in racist and sexist code words. They are afraid of us. They are afraid of Progress. People ware waking up.

I am so angry I am still shaking.

7. Attacks Can be Effective
but McCain is starting to define his campaign by its negativity. That is not a winning strategy.
