211. Good luck charm?
The last time Will gave up on JK the Iowa "miracle" occurred. If Kerry gets in I will toss all the rabbit's feet and horse shoes and wilted four leaf clovers into the trash bin. Then I will wait breathlessly for a crisis to come along and Will to throw in the towel.

But kidding aside, the fight for democracy is bigger than candidate, party or nation. This is a profoundly moral struggle with more than plain American values and rights at stake. Lives depend on this, something it might have been prudent for the DNC to have remembered all these feckless years.

Heading for the hills in the Biblical sense is no longer a global option.

I suggest media attacks, outside the media pamphleteering etc, finding people to remove the hacks and DINO's from all offices having to do with the vote and getting deep and in your face into the local party organization(or other parties, depending how locked in suicidal struggle your local Dems may be), building strong and expanding active issue coalitions, forging more grass roots political muscle that we will NOT submissively lend to submissive party regulars. The struggle for the Internet might challenge our creativity. So what they try to define away blogging? It will just come back as something else.
Chipping at the pillars actions, severing roots. Anything to destroy the effectiveness of advertising in mainstream electronic media and dry it up. The truth is an abandoned weapon lying on the field. Let's take it up and do our best.

Nil desperandum.
