We are likely going to be winning The Presidency, but losing the battles in the trenches
The well deserved glee all of us Dems feel about the probable re-election of President Obama should be tempered with the understanding that we are losing the battle at the grass roots level.
The attached article is, I am sure, only one of many Republican "dirty tricks" foisted on
the public in everything from State and Congressional redistricting to the heavy handed
union busting activities in so many States.
The possibility of Santorum becoming the Romney's running mate brings joy to the hearts of those who are only seeing an increased probability of an Obama win, however, they do not see the hundreds, or perhaps thousands of Democrats running for office for County and State offices in those States, like Florida, where a big turnout of conservatives will HURT the chances of any Democrat running for County or State office.
Here is a case of a Republican Governor illegally running a Democrat out of office ,not only before any conviction for any "felony" but even before he has had an opportunity to respond to the charges, ( which apparently were magnified out of any reality to the circumstances)
