The slogan in my first state senate campaign was I see Opportunities. It was during that earlier recession, when economic times were tough.we got to work together and things did get better.
The swallowing up of the Republican Party by the Jesse Helms Strom Thurmond extremist wing of the part now called Tea Party is another opportunity Democrats have an obligation to take on.
We must not fail to use the public's fear of their truly radical agenda in our fall efforts. There is very much the American public should fear of the Palin power team.we should tell them about it.
In being laser focused on winning, there's no choice for us but to stand up to these very real threats to traditional American principles. We will win if we show we have a backbone.Voters can tell who's for real, and this matters a lot.
Democrats cowering in fear of the big bad corporate right and all their money do not present a winnable ticket. Being Repubican-lite get's us nowhere. Being who we proudly are, does.
We know who we are: strong dedicated genuinely serving the common good.
Our opponents have much to hit on: the power of Wall St, the power of the insurance industry, shipping jobs overseas, wasting hundreds of billions in non-useful military adventures.
Helping elderly, kids and education, safer foods, a new energy future, jobs and more jobs...This rise of the Tea Party is a fabulous opportunity to spell out the contrast and in telling the truth, we end up with great big victories November 2nd,
The challenge has been issued, now it's up to us to stand up straight, and have the courage to lead.
