If we lose seats this election - should the D candidates fold or fight?
I have seen the Kerry flap over conceding flaring up here and there again (commented on it myself in one thread). If we lose more seats this election (which we may well due to fraud) should dems fold and wait for more proof or should they cry fowl and demand an investigation?

Some may say, fold so we don't look bad. Kerry did and now * is unpopular, he stole the election, but now we can win. Well, to me, a stolen election back then makes me think there will be more soon - when do we stop caring how we look and stand and fight for what is right??

And I am not talking about you and me - I mean the people we elected/employee. We have heard some, but far too little, on election rigging from the folks we put into office. Now it's all talk about Iraq, immigration, terrorism, funding for terrorism (we are bitching because funding was cut in some cities??? Maybe they need to cut more and spend it on social programs - the real threats we face are internal) and so on.

We have a big election coming up this year - are our employees going to fight if we get shafted or rise up and take some risks?

To our elected dems - don't conceded if you think there is something amiss. Fight for all you are worth - we expect our troops to face death in battle, and they spend months now in harms way (daily facing death). YOU face MSM and some conservative assholes whining about you. Fight damnit!!!!

2. Victory or Death!!!!
At this point there is no giving up. If I had any Dem reps, I'd crawl up their but to give them a spine and if they started to fold I'd reach around and grab their sac. Unfortunately I got Casey against Sicky Rantorum. Casey's not much better, so I better bring some aircraft wire.
