10. Amen brotha
I can't tell you how great it feels to be a Dem right now. Not just because many people are sick and tired of the lurking Republican cloud that has, for 6 years, been looming over our heads--but because Democrats are finally getting that fire lit under their asses. Every Democrat--from the student organizer on a college campus in upstate New York, to the congressional candidates who are willing, able, and ready to take a stance on the Hill is fighting the good fight. It won't stop at the primaries and general elections, rather the wave of sound liberal politics need to progress after the elections. We need to keep strategizing, planning, and coming up with innovative solutions.

This post really made me happy, considering I had a bit of a discussion with a dem on RedState who basically told the blog that being a dem and elected official is comparable to admitting one has an alcohol problem at an AA meeting. You can imagine my disgust as I read it, but just simply replied--the Democratic party has ideals that you may not seem to wrap your head around, and that is simply unfortunate, considering its the same ideals that many Americans are longing to return.

Keep up the good posts and we'll keep fighting the good and necessary fight!
