Please stop with this "We're going to win" meme. I thought after W's first 4 years, ANYONE could beat him, even John Kerry.

Guess what? W & Rove made it close enough to steal again. So why don't we approach this like we are going to lose unless everyone does everything right? I just don't like this sense of security. Not after the last four fucking years.

*unless you're a little old lady with a sign.

please, DNC, give this woman 15 minutes at the podium in Denver to tell her story so the non-netroots can hear her story and realize what shits the GOP is.

I think not.

Also, Fnarf @ 2, hilarious!

"the first amendment is subject to limits at private events, even those held in public spaces when they're leased for limited private uses.

I don't know the terms of the agreement between the McCain campaign and the owners of the meeting venue, and I don't know the relevant laws in the city of Denver. But even if it is a public property (which the librarian says it is), the campaign is likely leasing the space by contract which I believe entitles it to establish whatever reasonable (and otherwise legal) access and participation rules it chooses for what is now its own--technically-speaking--"private" event. Those would be subject to the terms of the contract and could not violate other relevant city statues and rules of use. But the first amendment is not in full force once this becomes a private event. "

PS. You used to be able to walk into an airport, pay cash for a ticket, never show ID, and never be searched. We called it "freedom". Too bad the terrorists won.

Does that mean that every Democrat has to be proud of someone like Rev. Al in order to be proud of their party?

"disruptive"?

That's EXACTLY the kind of namby-pamby shit that's killing free speech in this country. Oh heavens! So untidy and unsettling! Can't you go do that in a fenced-in Free Speech Zone?
