VIDEO!!!!*******Rubber Stamp Congress: Specter gets a Visit
I just watched this and it is great.....

In our ongoing "Rubber Stamp Congress Project," Matt Stoller brought over a thousand and seventy seven rubber stamps to Arlen Specter's office so that Arlen had the appropriate apparatus to use as he approves everything the President does. Remember, Specter didn't feel that Alberto Gonzales should be put under oath during the NSA hearing.

3. Doesn't the Democratic grassroots have anyone....
... who is actually somewhat skilled at being on camera and photogenic?

Stoller's a wonderful writer, but watching that video was not only not enjoyable, but downright painful. Even worse than watching Tarentino force himself into his movies.

Or is it that the blogosphere masters don't wanna relinguish any "fame" to anyone else, instead keeping it all for themselves?

Let the writers write. Get performers to perform.

my $.02

7. If one remembers back Bu$h went to Pennsylvania to help Specter
in his re-election bib in 04. Sen. Specter was behind in the poles, and Bu$h got credit for his re-election. So i guess this is Specters payback to this admin, so very very sad, party before country the republican way.
