The last Republican sunset

In less than 24 hours will be one hell of an election. I’m quite sure I can’t hold my breath that long but I feel like I’m trying, I might need a new inhaler. I’ll be taking the day off from work to watch the process in action. Not sure exactly what Ill be doing but I want to be involved.

This election in general scares the crap put of me. Have we made our point clearly enough to both parties that we’re not going to put up with this BS anymore? Have the Democrats found that they need to re-embrace their base, energize those their troops, anti-war troops but troops all the same. Have the Republicans leaned that we’re not going to sit back and cower when they call us names? That simply screaming terrorists isn’t going to work forever. They cannot simply attack in every direction like a rabid pit bull any longer, we’re paying attention and when people attack we can, will, and do respond immediately.

The netroots is growing, the people are speaking, often we’re screaming and we will not go quietly into the night. Tomorrow the Democrats will take the house, the Senate is a toss-up. The Republicans will try to rig many elections, and when they do we must catch them. They need to be caught red-handed stealing votes, they were caught both in 2000 and in 04 but not until it was too late. Tomorrow we will do what we can to catch them in the act and then we will indict everyone involved. Have the Democrats gained the courage needed to actually follow through? That will not be learned tomorrow. But right now there is some incredibly dirty politics going on right now, their backs are against the wall and they face the one thing they have no idea how to fight against, Accountability.
