Attention 2006 & 2008 contenders!

You do not-I repeat-Not have to be a politician at all to win votes! Quit speaking as if you are afraid you might offend one kind of group over another, when you make a stance! Quit being fearful and just speak your mind! Just being a democrat and NOT being a republican means a shoe-in, this time around. At least that's one thing the Bushies have done for you. They've really cleared the plate! And this country is SO ready for you.
....Ms. Pelosi, show more poise and backbone when you're on Russert next time. Tell it like it is! Take some tips from Dean and Boxer and Gore!
Do Not listen to your advisors and just fly with your guts!
Yes, yes, we have to stand up for many things. You know what they are! Iraq, Katrina, Healthcare, Gas prices..blah,blah...take yur pick or use them all. My point is....Don't worry...the only thing you really have to fear are those horrible voting machines...but from what I've read..things may be looking up a bit! I sure hope so!
Democratic leaders...RELAX!!!!!

1. NO NO NO

Rule number one in politics is never open your mouth when your opponent is very busy in the act of self-immolation.

The dems just need to wait. Any "just let fly with your guts" just gives the repugs the ability to try and distract the voters.

Just wait and let the fsckers burn.

3. I must have expressed myself badly.

Basically I just mean that they all seem so guarded with everything they utter...and I don't think they should worry about getting votes, as much as they seem to.

2. Yeeee-HA!! (in Howard Dean style)

Man o man do I agree with you.

Clearly, the way things have been done over the past several years does NOT work.
Why the heck do votes peel off of the Donkeys and into the Green-pool?
And yeah - not being a repub is not adequate.

What a great piece of meme-pie! Let's use it whenever we can in our conversations and correspondence with other d's , leadership and candidates...
