In the meantime...
Edited on Fri Nov-05-10 10:20 AM by DaveinJapan
we need to start up our own "citizens united" group to fight against the Republicans with big money.

No, it won't be as big as theirs. They've already got big oil, big banks, big wallstreet, in their pockets.

It doesn't have to be that big though. It just has to scare the crap out of the right wingers.

We need to USE the citizens united decision, in our own interest, to force a truly bipartisan loathing of the whole fucking deal...and then amend the constitution in order to stifle the supreme court.

So that means that ALL Democrats, Liberals, Progressives, and like-minded folks need to approach, cajole, entice, enrapture, and otherwise convince small to medium sized businesses that stand to gain from Democratic Control, to spend ALL their money on electing Democrats from this day forward.

When the shit hits the fan, the right wingers will scream "foul!", and that's when we have them.

Let's make a new amendment folks! Let's organize and make this happen!
