...let us just rip each other limb from limb, shall we?
Team #1: everyone who recommended the "Barack Obama sucks sweaty goat testicles" diary.
Team #2: everyone who recommended the "Everyone who recommended the Barack Obama sucks sweaty goat testicles diary... sucks sweaty goat testicles."
(In full disclosure, I'm marginally on Team #2), but that said...
...until the midterm elections exactly NOBODY'S mind will be changed, as they weren't in the days of Obama sux/Hillary Sux/John Edwards ACTUALLY Sux... as they equally weren't during the days of Why does John Kerry Sux?/If Howard Dean Didn't Sux He'd Be The Democratic Nominee 'Aight?... as they never have been during any of the various incarnations of Its All Israel's fault/It's All The Fault Of Those Dirty Arabs... as it WON'T BE (after the midterms) when we break into If Only We'd Nominated ONLY Progressives/If Only We Hadn't Tried To Nominate Progressives in States That Still Fly The Confederate Flag!
And ALL because the internet appears allergic to simple declarative statements like "I disagree with this choice," instead turning every policy disagreement into PROOF -- PROOF DAMNIT -- that X person is a centrist or a purist or an anarchist or a troll or "basically a Republican" or "wants to see Sarah Palin elected President" or whatever bit of anger and stupidity comes foaming from the mouth like rabies froth.
And so... we'll bite and claw and destroy and piss off as many of our own kind as we can, forgetting along the way that all that matters is: there's EITHER a Democrat or a Republican in the Speaker's chair and there's either a Democrat or a Republican as the Majority Leader and the difference between those two states is the difference between possible progress and a return to something dire and wholly unpleasant.
