high road vs fire with fire

[mopinko]

this thread- http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=2903450&mesg_id=2903450 brought up this issue, and i guess this is the real question that i am asking.
rahm emmanual says he is "from the vince lombardi wing of the democratic party. winning is everything."
i don't think that should be the whole party, but i think we need more like him.
(please, no dlc rants. i'm not talking about patty cake with "them". i'm talking about getting out the brass knuckles. let's just take rahm at his word for the sake of argument.)
you can comment on the button specifically, or the party in general.

2. The high road looks lovely

Too bad Newt, Tom, Karl, and Cat-Killer filled it with improvised corrosive devices.

The high road leads to a coffin right now.

3. We can't just sit back

and let the Republicans come across as more driven and aggressive.

4. Well, no one seems to like it when I suggest

RICO for PNAC, and rendition for Rove...

5. I like it...

...but what would you do with the rendered Rovefat?

7. Make candles

And with the rest, glue and lampshades.

8. We should be unafraid to be vicious and lead the attack

but we must never resort to lying. The truth is on our side.

6. To the victor goes the spoils

Sometimes, if you try to take too high a road, you gain so much altitude that not enought oxygen gets to your brain. I think that happened a little too often in 2004.

9. We need to

punch the GOP in the face, (ie. call them on all of thier bull shit- very loudly and publicly)while we embrace our red state bretheren and turn them away from the dark side.
