Vote November 2, 2010

The party of "NO" is trying to buy this election with massive amounts of corporate money, much of which is from largely anonymous sources. They are trying to gin up some "enthusiasm" for their base by co-opting and backing the Tea Party wackos, who are well funded, but largely ignorant of the deeper issues facing us. Sound bites are not going to identify, nor drive solutions to globalization, the depression, the gutting of the middle class, health care reform nor energy policy.

Corporations are not people and they are NOT good citizens, because their motives are profit only, not the long term good of our country and its' people.

The republicans have failed to advance any meaningful solutions to our problems over the last ten years, beyond lower taxes and deregulation. The Obama administration has brought forward progressive solutions for health care, financial regulation and energy policy, and have been stymied by the right every step of the way. The repugs scream about fiscal responsibility, but were responsible for the largest bank bailout in history as well as two wars overseas, and never made a peep about how to pay for those.

We do not have to allow them to buy this election. If you are a Democrat, or identify with the party, get out and vote.
