Well that's Blanche Lincoln gone. PUMA Amy Siskind is endorsing her.
Senator Blanche Lincoln finds herself in the political version of a perfect storm. Her home state of Arkansas is centrist. Predictably, Republicans are chastising her vote for Obama's health care legislation. Progressive organizations, unexpectedly, are throwing millions of dollars behind a male Democrat to challenge Senator Lincoln in a primary. And shockingly, a women's organization dedicated to getting women elected says she deserves it. Despite all the darts being thrown at Senator Lincoln from seemingly every direction, I'll stand with her. And here's why you should too.

So what kind of support would the New Agenda offer? Arranging to pay down the campaign debts? PUMAS's were a great help to Hillary Clinton with that. They hindered her efforts by going on Fox News to claim that they had them all paid. I wonder where that money went?

Offering to provide the IP addresses of any female bloggers that happen to oppose her online so that her friends could visit them with baseball bats?

Getting Blanche associated with a bunch of radical racist and sexist extremists?

Given the PUMA track record of FAIL, that the New Agenda has, if I were Lincoln I'd start packing my bags.

2. A mix.
Some were, some were not. A small minority had genuine issue. Most however did not. More than a far few were however nothing but racist pigs and Siskind has happily colluded with the latter group.

3. Aren't Lincoln and Kucinich voting the same way on the HCR Bill?
I wonder when Siskind will endorse Kucinich?

In fact The New Agenda called Palin a feminist role model.

You sound like the TheBigotBasher over at the DUmp who posted almost the same over there. Now you so easily call Hillary supporters sexist and racist. You are a joke.


Out yourself here.
