Redfern Calls On Blackwell to Implement E-Voting Safeguards

that DeWine just isn't the kind of partisan lightning rod that a portal like Kos needs to energize their base. Many people are more mad at the Democrats than the are the Republicans. You expect your enemy to hurt you, you don't expect your team to stab you in the back.

DKos thrives on that anger. There's no way that Kos could energize against Brown the way he could against Lieberman after the Senate primary. If Hackett had won it would have been able to, but not now. Too much bad blood. Too many questions unanswered. They were a house divided. Everyone on DKos HATES Lieberman. He's a perfect focus for them. They want to destroy Bush but Bush isn't running for anything. Who better than the Bush lover in our midst?

Me, I like punishing pro Iraq war idiots. I want that war over. This is the best way to do it.

Democratic politicians in Washington are not our friends. They are our representatives. Every now and they they lose their way and need to be taught a lesson. They only learn in one of two ways: losing elections or watching other people lose elections. You want them to be good servants, make an example of one of them. The rest will watch grateful that it isn't them, and adjust accordingly. For a while they all thought he was very smart kissing up to Bush. Not any more.

In any event, what do you care? It's not like we're doing anything to attract their energy or money. Heck, we've all but driven Kos out of Ohio. He burned his hand pretty bad on this stovetop.
