Message Control...

Somebody needs to pull Joe Biden aside and give him a good talking to. And while they're at it they might want to inform him that when you have your opponent's ass to the fire, you don't throw him a fire extinguisher.

If a Republican did anything like this he'd have been dealt with by now. No doubt Christopher Shays is enjoying his all expenses paid trip to the GOP Reeducation Camps as we speak.

Democrats need to stop trying to appear cooperative. The Republicans idea of bipartisan is "we get everything we want and you get to go home and tell your constituents how bipartisan you are while we go on Hannityand Colmes and call you a retard. And when you run for reelection we'll still run attack ads pointing out the one time you voted against us and calling you a partisan obstructionist."

The Dems are starting to remind me of the nerdy kid on the playground who tried his hardest to look cool so the bullies wouldn't beat him up. In the end he was still getting his head dunked in the toilet and the bullies were just having an extra laugh about how pathetic he was while they were doing it.

The Joe Liebermans and other assorted DLCers need to remember that it's not the Republicans bankrolling their campaigns. No matter how far right Joe goes, the Republicans are still going to run someone against him come election time and they'll just laugh harder at him in the meantime.

I'm not saying we should be as fascist about message control as the Republicans are, everyone's got a right to their opinion, but we have to keep it in control or we're going to continue to lose everything. We have the Republicans in the worst position they've been in in decades as far as public opinion goes and there are far too many Dems who seem all too willing to throw them a life preserver.
