Oh, boy, do I love competition.
The latest smackdown of Faux Noise by Edwards and the other Dems who told Roger Ailes to put it where he had the most room could be a very hopeful sign. Know why?
'Cause when Democrats compete to see who can smack down right-wing idiots hardest, you win.
This diary won't be long, or profound, because I'm going to bed soon and I'll be out all day tomorrow. But as I read Kos's FP story on Edwards' Bronx cheer to aforementioned Mr. Ailes, I couldn't help but feel like we might be witnessing the start of a full-on street-dance, Ultimate Fighting, WWF, monster-truck, You-Got-Served, In Yo Face showdown.
First, Obama lets the folks at Faux Noise know that he doesn't do interviews with fascist propagandists. Ouch!
Then, John Edwards bitch-slaps Faux Noise by refusing to play sub to Coulter/Hannity/O'Reilly's doms. Oooh, that's gonna leave a mark!
So Edwards sends the Faux Noise bullies scurrying home to mama having soiled their knickers, and leaves them sucking their thumbs and crying about how those mean old Democrats won't play Fair and Balanced®!!! WEEAAAHHHHH!!!
Awwww, too bad. Boo-frickin'-hoo.
Heh.
With Edwards having thrown down the gauntlet to show the rest of the field what it looks like when the Right Wing Noise Machine gets SERVED!, the ball's back in Barack's court.
Top that, yo!
And maybe Hillary will jump in from the sidelines and decide she wants to show what she's got.
Who knows? This could get real interesting real fast. Maybe having gotten a taste of throwing their, uh, spines around, Hillary and Obama might just decide to do the same inside the Senate chambers!
Game ON!
Heh. Who brought popcorn?
