On to the Next Right Thing

[Caro]

Okay, so we lost on torture, insane as that may seem. But let's move on to the next thing--winning in November. The only chance we'll have to overturn the awful legislation passed yesterday is to put Democrats in the majority. Then we can start weeding out the DINOs.

Battle Royale: Democrats Have Shot At Senate and House Control

by Brent Budowsky

The surge of support for several Democratic candidates has put the Senate within reach of Democratic control, joining the House of Representatives in what is now an election battle royale.

The Senate could very easily turn out 50-50, that's how close this is, and the composition for the House could be a razor thin majority for either party.

This is the key: any single person who reads these words could determine the outcome of the Congress of the United States in one of the most important and historic elections of our time. There will be some of these races that will be decided by a handful of votes, that is how close it is.

It is fine to criticize Democrats and I am first in line to do so, and will have much more to say after the election. But this is the time for rally cry, for battle cry, for all hands on deck, for everyone manning the barricades because the core of our democracy, the very issues of war peace, are on the table and the battle is that close for control.

The Senate is now in play, and Democrats have some outstanding candidates that are fighting their way into the race and some are surging slightly ahead. This is the kind of election where even some major Republican "whales" could well lose, such as Senator Rick Santorum, high ranking Republican leader, and Senator George Allen, the darling of the right in presidential politics who may well lose his seat.

Battle cry.

Rally cry.

All hands on deck.

Man the barricades.

Do what you can, volunteer your time, donate money, do anything to help get out the vote…
