So, I'm going on vacation tomorrow...

[progressoid]

For the first time in more years than I can remember, I'm taking some time off.
Well it's sort of like a vacation - my Republican M-I-L will be there (but she bought the plane tickets so...:eyes: )


Anywho, here's what I expect will happen while I'm not reading the interwebs or watching the TV.

After Montana and South Dakota, do their thing, the Supers and a few more of Edwards delegates will voice their support for Obama and put him over the top.

Next, the DNC rules committee will work out some sort of compromise to seat FL and MI delegates that will make them happy but ultimately not alter the delegate count.

Then there will be a great outpouring of benevolence and good vibes amongst (most) Democrats. The corporate media will run stories of us singing Kum Ba Yah. There will be public displays of hatchet burying and all will be right with the world.

And I'll come back to a peaceful, united DU! Ready to fight the GOOD fight against this lot:










Hey, a guy can dream right?

1. I think you are probably right

I know you are right about Dems joining together to tell the truth on the GOP so that they get the h*ll they deserve!

9. I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

I'm going to try to be mostly intoxicated most of the time. :)

3. Bring a LOT of Bob Barr material/libertarian arguments with you.

You just might changer her mind. "Vote for the TRUE conservative! Vote Libertarian!" ;)

7. Hey, that might just work!

She just emailed me a list of "memorable" Reagan quotes. :banghead:

When I pointed out what a failure he was in reducing the size of the gov't, she had to agree. Maybe she'll go for Barr!

[Swamp Rat]

10. Use some Reagan talking points, if you can.

Remind her of the restraint Reagan used - no "major wars." He talked to dictators, etc. Try not to vomit when you do this. :D

4. not Wyoming. You must mean Montana.

Have a nice trip! Here's hoping for rest for you, and peace for DU.

8. Oops thanks.

Was just talking about a cousin in WY this morning. Looks like I reeeaaaly need some time off!

[scarletwoman]

AMEN! From your keyboard to the Great Universal Mainframe! k&r! (nt)

5. May it BE so - nt

happy vacation

6. Actually, I think the supers will move in big enough numbers....

... to put the voters of SD and MT in perfect posture to be the ones who put Obama over the top.

:bounce:

Enjoy your vacay! And GOP MIL's are at least good for... buying your plane ticket. }(
