One of the topics discussed at my Thanksgiving dinner was the need for democrats to know that there's a large community of us out there. I'm still proud to have a Kerry/Edwards bumper sticker on my car, but I think it's time to start thinking about new stickers that will build community and make people think about the choices we can make for our country.

So here's a couple of designs I'm tossing around. I'd appreciate any feedback before I go ahead and print up a run of them to see what people think.

I'm going to take an optimistic point of view right now. Bush is tanking...his approval ratings are at an all time low. The Republicans have little to promote themselves with, except fear, and this seems to be losing its effectiveness.

So, what are the Democrats doing? Promoting liberal/progressive ideals? Calling for health care reform? Major education reform?

No. We're talking about having John McCain (a republican...duh) as our VP candidate. Stupid, stupid, stupid. Now is the time for democrats to sweep into office riding a wave of liberalism designed to save this country. Now is not the time to "bridge the gap" between right and left, it's the time to save our country by getting rid of everyone associated with this administration, and we're not going to do this by nominating (or even hinting about nominating) a republican VP candidate.

Top 5 Hardback Non-Fiction Bestsellers

The Price of Loyalty (Suskind)
American Dynasty (Phillips)
My Prison Without Bars (Pete Rose)
Dude, Where's my Country (Moore)
Lies (And the Lying Liars That Tell Them) (Franken)

Pretty cool stuff, all anti-Bush except Pete Rose and he's just weird. Michael Savage does make an appearance at #7, and O'Reily at #12.

Hope we're not experiencing the early peak...but this looks good to me

I've (actually, it was my dad's idea) been playing around with the idea of trying to get tons and tons of people to start placing postage stamps upside down on all of their mail as a protest against the Bush administration. Read More

I had to bail out of the You Want Polls thread because of the venom being spewed in there. Look, I'm a Dean supporter and I like his policies at least as much as any other candidate out there. But, I'm sorry to say, it looks like he's done barring a complete and utter miracle. Read More

I've been watching a couple of channels tonight (MSNBC and CNN) along with listening to some of the NPR coverage.

I understand that it's more difficult this year because there are two contenders with the same first name (John). But, it's really annoying that the Tim Russerts, Tom Brokaws and Wolf Blitzers can't even get the names of the candidates right. I know I'm nitpicking, but I'd like them to be talking about the right candidates. Is it too much to ask for them not to say things like "and now back to South Carolina, where John Kerry has just won the primary" (Cut to Edwards HQ)

So, CBS won't allow the moveon.org commercial to air during the super bowl, but they just gave Bush 5 minutes to talk about, among other things, steroids in sports.

This is unbelievable. They don't want policy commercials, but it's ok to let the president come on, during an election year. Uggh.

They could at least make his re-election committee pay for the air time!

Jon Stewart's Getting Good

The Daily Show's been the funniest late night show since Stewart took over. But lately Jon Stewart has been doing a phenomenal job with the interview portions of the show. Last night, he stuck it to Richard Perle about the hypocrisy of the PNAC'ers (Pakistan, Iran, Libya, NK, etc...). And tonight, he's getting out some great points about the inanity of the Bush environmental policies (Healthy Forests, etc...) with Christie Todd Whitman.

How do we best capitalize on this? His interviews are much better than any network talking head, and he seems to be able to get great interviews. I mean, this week he's had Dean, Perle and Whitman- What network wouldn't kill for that. We need to use this to our advantage, but how?

Hope for Deaniacs?

This Campaign Desk blog entry gives me a little hope for a possible victory tomorrow:

http://www.cjr.org/blog/archives/cat_tip_of_the_hat.asp#000052

Four years ago, most polls had John McCain with a narrow lead over George. W. Bush; McCain actually won New Hampshire in a landslide, 48 percent to 30 percent. Similarly, final polls by CBS and CNN gave Al Gore a double-digit lead over Bill Bradley -- in the end, Gore barely squeaked by, 50 percent to 46 percent.

With Dean's upward momentum, anything's possible tomorrow! And I think if it's close (ie. Dean pulls within 5%), we'll see a nice bounce nationally

Thank you Howard Dean for making such a passionate speech two nights ago that it knocked the State of the Union off the lead from tonight's ABC News.

Who would have thought that the Democratic Primary could be more interesting, and important, that a floundering president's SOTU address.

Please, please let that speech have been his last State of the Union!
