Four Simple Rules...
If they were going to make a TV series based on the current Democratic party leadership, they might call it Four Simple Rules for Snatching Defeat from the Jaws of Victory.
It would, of course, be a sitcom — actually, a farce.
In today's CommonDreams, writer Bob Burnett has already laid out the rules, which he calls the four rules of the weenie world:
Never, never reveal what the Democratic Party stands for.
Pick a wimpy slogan and say it over and over until everyone knows that it sucks.
Don't push back.
When in doubt, imitate the Republicans.
Come to think of it, the show wouldn't be a sitcom or a farce. It would be a tragedy.
Comments
(1) Go Centrist if an issue requires any balls...( Hillary?)
(2) Get everybody all rev'd and involved and then CHOKE...( the filibuster duck and run- Kerry and Kennedy did a good job, but the rest of them were shameful)
(3) Smile while getting crapped on
(4) Be so fucking polite, because that works great to help the repugs- ie Lieberman.
