24. You the one?
The problem is that the debate is being lost. A few voices are dominating. There is no inspired leader on the left,. The job is available.
Could be someone here?

issues ideas and inspiration

No to
"stupid racist homophobic pugs liars....
used to describe this
"junta and how bad and evil nazilike and horrid they are."

thats gonna change peoples minds?
You ever persuaded by Ann Coulter?
Right.
See my point?

How about to start:
Lets universally drop the extreme language?

Think, Nazi's killed millions of people. Gathered em up, trucked and trained em to camps, shot em hung em cut em up drowned em and
Burned em in ovens. Out of respect and an intelligent and aware view of the most horrid episode in human history, please
honor that memory
by reserving that word for that hellish center of the 20th century?

BTW
Do not say that to your grandfather,
Bush is a nazi,
You will likely get one on the nose.
His friends are dead. Or his Dad. Or his uncle. Okay?
Killed by
real Nazis.

*****************************
The hard job for you as fearless and inspirational leader is persuasion.

Keep in mind:
There is no "They".
There is no "us"
"They" live next door,
have children in school,
worry about the future.

Be a hardass when you got to be.

Bush's hardass attitude has near universal appeal.
JFK.
FDR.
Churchill.
Reagan.
Okay?
The rest is details.
Because
Someone messes with your sister or son or whatever, what you do?

From the Terminator to Gangstas to mom and pop
here in lovely Vermont.

mess with us, pay 100 times.


Bush is not a favorite of conservatives. Reagan is. Bush is Reagan lite. No matter how many times you say "extreme right wing " etc. Its not so.
Doubt this? Open any conservatrive forum.

_________________________________________________________________

Big point for you:

NADER VOTES cost gore the election.


Fact:

from Videlicet03
"and only a middle of the road guy can get elected. Name for me the last time an avowed liberal ran as a liberal and won in a landslide. 1936?? "

your problem:

from liberalmuse "BTW, I do believe Lieberman will alienate many, MANY liberals, including myself. I will vote if he runs, but Green or Independent. I've never voted Republican in my life, and I won't start in 2004."

Because

hardcore conservatives vote R. No matter what.
Hardgore liberals stay home, or vote for...Phil Donahue?

*******************************************************************
Off Topic
Who will be next years third party?
My money is on the Reverend. With a lot of help from his friends, a bus ride here...a meal...a place to stay...a place to speak.

Dean as dark horse. ...internet money source...
"For the people"

"For a Bush victory"
