Dear Senator Claire McCaskill of Missouri, for you to be so dismissive [View all]

[Ninga]

of Democratic Party values by asserting convention attendees are just party goers is plain old disingenuous. Your interview on Morning Joe today was shameful and by the way you were flitting you hands and gesturing nervously...it didn't even look like you believed your own drivel.

It is the members of your party that pound the pavement, and dial the phones trying to get you and all Democrats on the ticket elected. The convention is the place for party loyalists to get fired up so that they can return to their states and work as non-paid volunteer campaign workers.

Further, for you to not stand in support of our President during his party convention speaks volumes about your political integrity and lays bare before the voters the racist yellow under belly inherent in such a coward-filled decision.

Poo-poo it as you are entitled, but be on notice that if you are only in it to win it for yourself, surely you will fail because these times require the courage of standing together in solidarity. The time has come to step up to the plate and declare that our shared values are what make us stronger and that divided, we play right into the hands of right. Damn it to hell, when is the last time you heard a Republician Senator declare his party gathering irrelevant......
