It’s going to get down and dirty and anyone who doesn’t vote for Obama is going to be called a racist.. which I find tremendously offensive.

”We did it! Thanks to you, Democratic Congressman-Elect Travis Childers is coming to Washington. His stunning victory — our third straight win in a ruby-red district — has sent the Republicans reeling yet again. We are now 3-for-3!

There is no way for the GOP to spin this. They brought in Dick Cheney and their shadowy groups. We brought in YOU. And the results speak for themselves.

Even Dick Cheney, with all of his Halliburton-backed Big Oil money was no match for the nationwide grassroots movement for change that you are helping to lead. One-by-one you are painting America blue this year.

Here is the scorecard for 2008 so far:

Illinois’ 14th District, the seat represented by the former Republican House Speaker Dennis Hastert for more than 20 years — won by Democratic Congressman Bill Foster.
Louisiana’s 6th District, a seat that the Republicans held for the past three decades — won by Democratic Congressman Don Cazayoux.
Mississippi’s 1st District, a seat that George Bush won by more than 60% in 2000 and 2004 — won by Democratic Congressman-Elect Travis Childers.

In race-after-race, it’s becoming clearer that the Republicans’ worst nightmare this year is YOU. Now it’s on to November.”

Not one mention of the dirty trick they played, which they most likely did not need to do.

This campaign will only get uglier from those who preach they are the ”tolerant” ones.

To me, it reflects back on the tactic employed by the Clintons and learned at the knee of Saul Alinsky, The Politics of Personal Destruction.

It isn’t enough to defeat your opponent, you must destroy them. Very reminiscent of the Bolsheviks that took over Russia to eventually form the Soviet Union.]]> Received in my throw away email today, from the DCCC:
