Annals Of What We're Up Against
Be afraid. Even terrified. Then, get organized.
Digby has a crucial post that spells out, courtesy of the Wa Po, what all those hundreds of millions of dollars Bush has collected to run in an unopposed primary are buying him and the Republicans.
Just reading about it got my heart rate up, my hands clammy, and my throat all dry, just like when you watch a horror flick; I don't see many of them precisely because I hate that feeling of dread.
Digby's right though, minimizing in any way the battle that's ahead is the first step toward defeat. There was no percentage in ignoring Cassandra. Let's hope this is the start of a practical dialogue, among bloggers and readers, friends, relatives, anyone concerned about this country from a left perspective, one that leads to all kinds of actions. So go read, and then start thinking.
