It seems like every four years, Democrats select a gentleman to be their candidate and then they are cheering him for being such a nice guy - as opposed to his dirty-trickster-opponent. Then, the election arrives and the Republican crook wins.

Well, history shows that, "the party responsible for the dirtiest tricks usually [wins]."

From the book, ."Anything for a Vote" by Joseph Commins:

And dirty tricks do influence the outcome of the presidential elections. In some of the ugliest elections of all time - from the Jefferson-Adams bloodbath of 1800 through the Hoover-Smith smearfast of 1928 to the Bush-Gore millennial madness - the party responsible for the dirtiest tricks usually won.

So big was the Republican mess-up, that a religious conservative group in New York's 19th district, decided to drop their traditional support for the Republicans, and to support John Hall, one of the most progressive democratic candidates in the country. Their decision not to vote for incumbent Sue Kelly, and to support Mr. Hall instead, was the main reason that she lost.

But little did the Jews in the enclave of Kiryas Joel, NY know, that for their support for Hall they will be branded as terrorists and enemies of our country.

Kelly - who refused to concede until now - and her cronies, retaliated with a nasty smear campaign against her ex-supporters, including a sign that one personal Kelly friend and owner of a lumber posted in front of his store, comparing the religious conservatives in Kiryas Joel to the Al Qaeda Terrorists. To see pictures of the sign check out the blogs of New york Daily News and the Observer Read More

Bigger Majority Than Republicans In 1994

I don't know if anyone has mentioned it, but we're gonna have a bigger majority in the house of representatives than the one that the Republicans got in 1994.

The Democrats already secured 230 seats (229, plus Jefferson's seat in Louisiana that will definitely remain in our column, after the Runoff, in which 2 democrats are running.) 230 is the number of seats that the republicans controlled after the elections in 1994. And about Nine seats are still undecided - We're definitely gonna get a couple of those as well, at the end.

In the 12 years of the Republican regime, their majority never exceeded 230. Read More

My question to people in the liberal blogsphere:

Why can't you wait until we take over the house and senate to punish traitors? Was it so important to send a massage to Joseph Lieberman, even with the risk of losing control of the house and senate?

I remember when some stupid liberals insisted on legalizing gay marriage before the 04' elections, and how we suffered heavy losses in the general elections because of them.

Yes, I'm a proud lib, but I'm also a cautious lib and I'm not doing things in haste that can damage my party.

You schmucks. Can't you wait until we take over Washington to do whatever you are doing?

Remember, as long as the democrats are out of control in Washington, Bush can nominate whoever he wants to the supreme court, and WE can't stop him. As long as we are not in control Bush can do whatever he wants in Iraq and WE can't stop him.

So, is it more important to punish Lieberman or to stop the conservative agenda in Washington?

Let's Steal the Elections In 2008

We should stop whining about the outcome of the 2004 election. Instead
let's focus on how to steal the election in 2008
ourselves, literally. Let's get dirty the Republican way. Let's steal
votes, tit-for-tat.

Let's open Blogs and Websites to discuss the issue and to share
information on how to cheat on Republicans, how to hack into election
computer mainframes and how to suppress voter turnout in Republican
areas. Let's keep the issue alive.

If we are successful, the mainstream media will finally catch on to
the story and America will wake up that our election system is
corrupted. The Republican autocrats in Washington will realize that
election fraud could harm them more then it could harm us, and we will
finally see some election reform.

I'm not kidding. If we don't act, we won't have any chance to win an
election in our country. Karl Rove and company will steal one election
after another and the pundits will continue to debate what's wrong
with the Democratic Party, Instead of what's wrong with the American
election process.

Liberal cons were are you? Gosh, I know we don't have many.

Dear MoveOn member,

Questions are swirling around whether the election was conducted honestly or not. We need to know -- was it or wasn't it?

If people were wrongly prevented from voting, or if legitimate votes were mis-counted or not counted at all, we need to know so the wrongdoers can be held accountable, and so we can prevent this from happening again.

Members of Congress are demanding an investigation to answer this question. The decision on whether or not there will be an investigation could come as soon as Monday. Join us in supporting the call for one now, at:

http://www.moveon.org/investigatethevote/

Then please invite your friends and colleagues to sign, as well. We need to show Congress that hundreds of thousands of Americans are serious about protecting the integrity of the vote.

A suggested phrase for a John Kerry Speech:

"Under A John Kerry presidency, It will not be after Nine months and a major terror attack that I will start fighting terrorism."

The New York Times reported today that "Mr. Bush's aides say, his central focus over the final 10 days will be what they have always seen as his strongest suit: the fight against terrorism. Mr. Bush's advisers will attempt to command the agenda in the remaining days with an intense and grisly procession of television advertisements and attacks by Mr. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney on the issue."

Well, Mr. Bush "Bring It On."

How to counter the attacks on Kerry's so-called "shifting" positions on Iraq

I believe that Kerry should respond in kind to Bush's attacks that he has been "switching" and "shifting" his position on Iraq.

I think Kerry should throw the ball back into Bush's court with exactly this same charge. He should just point out that if anyone has "switched" or "shifted" positions on the Iraq war - it is actually Bush who's been doing the "shifting" - by "changing" the reason for going to war!

Ever since the before the war, Bush has been all over the place with so many different reasons for going to war. And when one charge is proven false, he just changes it to the next one...

Here is little list of reasons Bush has given so far:

1)    Saddam was involved with 9/11
2)    Saddam "has" WMD
3)    Saddam is "developing" WMD
4)    Saddam "wants" to develop WMD
5)    Saddam wont cooperate with the inspectors
6)    We can't trust the weapons inspectors
7)    Saddam is just "bad"
8)    We need to liberate the Iraqi people
9)    We need to "Remake" the middle east

And the list goes on and on....
