Reply #46: The only choice that's "too out there" is an accommodationist [View All]

We've learned - at least, I hope we've learned - that there is no way to be nice to the Republicans and survive. They are the true "wolfpack" - any concession is, to them, a sign of weakness on which they immediately pounce. Every attempt to work with them becomes a signal to them to demand another concession, and then another, and then another. We've ceded far too much ground to them already.

What we need at the head of the party is a pit-bull, a meanspirited, evil scumbag who wants to tear the GOP's heads off and piss down their necks, who won't be satisfied until George W. Bush is wearing striped pajamas and breaking rocks with a sledgehammer while chained between an axe-murderer on one side and a multiple child-rapist on the other.

I'm not saying that will or even can happen, but that's the attitude we need at the DNC. Anything less is a giveaway.
