Senator Blanche Lincoln finds herself in the political version of a perfect storm. Her home state of Arkansas is centrist. Predictably, Republicans are chastising her vote for Obama's health care legislation. Progressive organizations, unexpectedly, are throwing millions of dollars behind a male Democrat to challenge Senator Lincoln in a primary. And shockingly, a women's organization dedicated to getting women elected says she deserves it. Despite all the darts being thrown at Senator Lincoln from seemingly every direction, I'll stand with her. And here's why you should too.

PUMAS's were a great help to Hillary Clinton with that. They hindered her efforts by going on Fox News to claim that they had them all paid.
I wonder where that money went?Offering to provide the IP addresses of any female bloggers that happen to oppose her online so that her friends
could visit them with baseball bats? Getting Blanche associated with a bunch of radical racist and sexist extremists?
Given the
PUMA track record of FAIL,
that the New Agenda has, if I were Lincoln I'd start packing my bags.
