Reply #11: If it's no contest, there will be no contest

[Dogmudgeon]

Too many Obama supporters have gotten overconfident. The GOP is a nasty motherfucker of a political party, and we're not. If you think DU GD-P is tough stuff, you're not playing in the grown-up leagues. The challenges that Hillary and Obama have issued to each other resemble "dueling" slaps with a pair of lace gloves. We need to think in terms of drowning the Republican party. Subduing it for at least 16 to 20 years. Forcing it to "reboot" the way Teddy Roosevelt did to it a century age (though that failed when Bob Taft beat out TR).

Whether Obama or Hillary goes up against McCain, it will be a death match. The GOP has their industrial-capacity shit machine all ready, and if they can't find the shit they need, they'll invent it.

And no matter who wins, we can't sit home and commiserate about "conscience". We HAVE to win. We can settle scores and reconcile debts at our convenience, AFTER the inaugural ball.
