It sucks that we didn’t pull it off in Wisconsin yesterday, but we all knew that it was going to be a tough thing to do and it only got tougher when the Koch money started pouring in.
I caught a little news this morning, but didn’t really want to listen to Chuck Todd, and the like, tell me what message this sent, via carrier pigeon I assume.
This was not some “dress rehearsal” for November like so many in the media are trying to push. Just like 2010 and every other special election hasn’t sent any messages either.
We need to stay focused on Nov. 6, 2012, amidst all the distractions from both the right and the “left”. If Republicans gain the WH and/or the Senate, the transfer of our country to the top 1% will be finalized.
I’m a liberal that is extreme in some ways and not in others. I support President Obama and make no apologies for it. I think he has done a phenomenal job, especially when you consider that he inherited a huge mess and has faced unprecedented opposition from a lazy & desperate Republican Party. I’m a film producer/director/editor, adjunct professor, technician, media critic and photographer when I’m not reading left wing blogs and typing on this one. – On Twitter @ExtremeLiberal or Email at liberalforreal (at) gmail.com
