YO! Russ Finegold, Andrew Sullivan, Chuck Hagel, THE MEDIA

[Sugarcoated]

Where the hell are you guys?? Chris Dodd, Kathleen Sebelius, Jim Webb, Bob Casey, Ed Rendell, most ESPECIALLY my man Russ - ALL prominent Dems - WHY AREN'T YOU OUT THERE STANDING UP FOR THESE GOOD MEN! You ALL know what's at stake in this election, and you are all witnessing the despicable lows McCain and the Republican party are stooping to! A gimmick, a DANGEROUS gimmick the once honorable John McCain puts forth to cave to the RW hate radio, in this complicated world! STAND THE HELL UP TO THEM FOR US!!

Where's all the liberal surrogates? Dee Dee Myers, Begala, many I don't even know their names, but the good ones, WHERE ARE YOU GUYS??
You well know the Republicans are all out there doing their duty, PLEASE TREAT THIS SERIOUSLY AND FIGHT BACK!!!

And how about the disgusted Republican's? Andrew Sullivan, I've read your words of praise for Barack Obama, being ashamed of supporting Bush and Cheney, I saw you out there for Bush in '04, WHAT'S STOPPING YOU NOW?? Chuck Hagel, you couldn't bring yourself to speak at the Democratic Convention for some unknown reason, but you say getting out of Iraq is so important - TAKE A REAL STAND AND FIGHT FOR THIS TICKET!

Please, let's have a level playing field for a change, can't our A team guys get out there and fight back?

AND THE MEDIA, DO YOUR JOB AND STOP KOWTOWING TO THE BULLSHIT "LIBERAL MEDIA" CAMPAIGN TACTIC THE REPUBLICAN'S USE TO INTIMIDATE YOU!
McCain and his handlers need to be taken on and HELD ACCOUNTABLE for hiding Palin, letting her get away with lying about her record THE MEDIA IS SUPPOSED TO BE ABOUT TRUTH. Stop the horse race crap for ratings, you're LETTING AMERICA DOWN!

I'm so sorry for the rant, but . . . Come on Russ, can you still really say John will do a good job? How was his first decision as a potential president? Did you think fabulous choice, smart politics? Is he really a good guy still, accusing Obama of 'pushing sex ed on kids before they can read' smear??? I know you're an honorable man, and I admire you're loyalty, but this all wrong, so wrong!

Come on, we need you guys!

Rant over.

1. Does anyone else feel this to be true???

I'm frustrated as hell about this! I'd like to keep kicked because I know some of the people mentioned or people who work or know them may see it.

2. They're Wringing Their Hands On The Sidelines

Hoping that the Principal will break up the fight.

3. I do

Have been wondering where all the democratic politicians are who were interviewed on tv during the convention.
Some of it may be lack of coverage while they focus on the media faves but Rendell got his remarks in the media. They can do better and must.

4. Those people have to be INVITED ON to the talking head shows

and the corporate media isn't going to allow THAT to happen!

5. when they get the opportunity, they do come up to the plate...

Tonight I watched Debbie Wasserman-Schult RIP a new one out of Peter King... RIIIIIIIIIIP! She's awesome - you talk about a pitbull, man oh man, you want her on your side! She drove me nuts during the primaries (I was for Obama) so when she defended Hillary, I wanted to choke her. But now... LOVE her! Tim Kaine did a great job on Sunday, too. I don't think they're getting the tube time they should... This new popularity for politics has the pundits hogging all the airtime for THEMSELVES... the "experts" and their never-ending self-important opinions that they parrot from each other over and over again... used to be surrogates were interviewed... now they have to fight for airtime with the damn "celebrity" pundits.

6. Who came out to help Kerry. Who came out to help Hilary??

This is why the Democratic Party loses Elections.
Can you tell me one time they agree on anything? Therefore,
they cannot come out and stand for anything.

We knock the Media. The Media is smart enough to know the Democratic
Party cannot be depended on. Sorry, I felt like ranting also.

As wrong as they are, the GOP know how to stand their ground.
They have formed a firewall around Palin and have created the
best "Buzz" Operation to keep her on the Air Waves looking like
a winner.

8. My anger is actually a continuation from '04

The media knows they're being played, yet for some reason they go along with it. Like this phoney anger because Joe Biden brought up stem cell research so they make it the big topic of the night. God, the Republican's are actually going Jerry Springer to win, they just have no shame about lying. The end justifies the means.
