"Everything's good with your mammogram, Governor"
Are you as sick of looking at the bony, bespectacled face of evil (for those of you playing along at home, Linda Lingle, first repuke governor in forty freakin' years) during every single commercial break as I am?

I mean, c'mon, this is way beyond soft money: getting her mug out there with the saturation of a political campaign, under the guise of a public service announcement (i.e. not subject to any spending limits)? Not that breast cancer isn't a great cause, but it's odd that she seems to have only just discovered it in the midst of a political campaign season, don'tcha think?

6. I'm pretty sure Opihi was laying on the sarcasm
and in fact, what's-her-face is considerably less evil than many of her mainland counterparts: Sonny "Confederate Flag-Waver" Perdue of GA or Tim "First Amendment Tax" Pawlenty of MN, for example.

That still doesn't mean I want to see her every time I turn on the tube, like Big Brother on the telescreens (and in fact I haven't seen the spot once since the election. Hmmm.) Besides, former TV journalist Dan Cooke actually did portray Lingle in drag at a Press Club dinner, to raucous applause...

5. I suppose one can say we Dems are caught up in the Hate Game
taught to us by the Pubs....then they get all huffy when we use Hate too.

Hate is not good and should be avoided whenever possible. We cannot compete with the Pubs. They OWN HATE.

Come, we go drink, smile, eat, sing, think.

7. Nixon taught us about hate
Before he went to his helicopter in 1974, he said that those who hate lose. Good principle to understand. It also predicts the downfall of any political party that adheres to that.

Here is my LOVING solution---

My message is--elect Democrats every 2 months---

Here's how we can paint Hawaii and South Dakota Ultra-Blue! This will work for any state in the USA--do this in your state- start an UDO group!

After the election, I decided to change things. I decided we needed to have our own elections-- 6 times a year!

Check out UDO!

Wanna OutBLUE people in a Red County? Check out my Yahoo Group--

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/sd_democrats_UDO /

Let's start a state wide UDO (Ultra Democratic organization)--

first elections December 2004!

(Anyone can join the Yahoo group)

Thanks!
