7. Do we have to send him $$ so he gets reelected in 2010?
I sen him some way back when he described the Pu HC plan, and once since. How do his poll #'s look right now?

8. K & R for Cenk Uygur & TYT
Rep. Grayson's speeches sure as hell don't get enough coverage, and I'm glad Cenk gets this stuff in front of as many eyes as possible.

10. Grayson would make a good president.
He seems to really love politics and knows how to highlight the hypocrisy and lies of his opponents with humor rather than rancor. That is what we really need. He is very intelligent, not motivated by excessive greed or vanity from what I can tell. He is well balanced and likable. I hope he runs for president one of these days.

Oops! Forgot to mention that he is from Florida, a pivotal state.

13. How refreshing to see a partisan Democrat & ideological lefty like Grayson.
I fully expect to hear some whining that he's mean and divisive, from those who really believe the nonsense that there are not red states and blue states, that we're just the United States. Oh, what a bunch of rubes...

15. Many of those doing the whining, would quickly stick a shiv in your back
as soon as you turned around.

16. There certainly are those.
On the other hand, many of them are simply shivless.

14. The Republicants are doing everything possible to re-write history.
It is imperative that the Democrats don't let them. When will the Democrats learn they can't play nice with Republithugs and expect to win?

17. Once again, I'm so glad this man represents my district.
If he keeps this up I'd be happy to support a Franken/Grayson Ticket. I can only hope the current majority will soon learn that it is perfectly acceptable to stand up for the people whom you are supposed to represent. Maybe the ballsiness will rub off a bit.

20. What is up with TYT ? Clicking on
this on TYT on you tube starts out with an attack ad on Martha Coakley by Teabagger Scott Brown.

22. Really?
You mean a pop-up or a short video commercial? I haven't seen that. And by the way, we can't choose the ads, that's done by Google. But if it's true it's strange, unless some computer program is generically choosing political ads since the TYT channel has tons of politics/news/commentary.

23. I dont have any idea how it works - I just know
Edited on Fri Jan-15-10 02:21 PM by cadmium
that you bet a brief spot slamming Coakley sometimes when you click on this link. It is a short video. If TYT doesn control it -- I wonder if Google/YT just links political ads with political videos. I was thinking that TYT was joining up with some FDL members that are campaigning against Coakely.

Click on link directly and see if it happens to you. I am in Massachusetts so maybe only we get it.

24. Correct, TYT has no control over it.
And Cenk never mentioned anything to me about campaigning against Coakley either.

32. What browser are you using, i.e. Firefox, Explorer, Chrome, other?
And is it only for recently uploaded videos? YouTube has been buggy lately and people have issues watching recently added videos (for all channels, not just TYT).

33. I have to use Explorer as otherwise
Edited on Fri Jan-15-10 07:32 PM by truedelphi
DU doesn't recognize me.

I just figured out if I go to the Chattabox site, I can see the vid there.

But otherwise, I face that bug described above.

36. Really?
You know you can export your settings/passwords from Explorer to FireFox or Google Chrome, both of which are faster than Explorer. Just something to consider.

25. If more Democrats had that much honesty and courage during the last couple of decades
This country would be a completely different place.

I hope the others are taking notes!

26. Grayson telling like it is....again
The repugs trying to alter history has been going on for years Cenk.There is one more thing that is going on in D.C. They are trying to set the mindset of the people.By telling them things that have not happened yet.Such as how many seats that the Democratic Party will lose in 2010.The repugs have already started with their recruits and they are already starting with voter registration.They are trying to emulate parts of our President's campaign moves to advance themselves.They have already started saying the American people feel this, the American people feel that.They use the word feel to make it sound personal as if they have really been out there everyday talking to the American people.They are already gearing up their candidates and are taking no prisoners.If I had one wish and wishes came true,I would like to see the Democrats pick up ten more seats in the House and five more in the Senate.And let them be uncorrupted by corporate entities with loyalty and progressiveness toward the people of America.
