Cower to Power Strategy

Clift: Dem Feingold Tosses GOP a Life Raft - Newsweek Politics - MSNBC.com: 'Republicans will rally round him if they think it's a personal attack just like we did with Clinton,'warns the strategist."

Let's look at the quote above and put it into context. Yes, liberals did rally around Clinton. A few years later, we lost the White House to an idiot. Without Lewinsky, Gore rolls through the election without a scratch, no matter how badly he screwed up the campaign. With Lewinskly, Scalia got to decide the winner.

Democrats have been pussy-footing their way through the last five years, hoping that poll numbers would take the place of actually putting forth a strong front. They don't have a Will to Power strategy. They have a Cower to Power strategy. As in, let's just stay out of the way, here in the shadows, waiting to be last people standing.

Hey, centrist Democrats! Have you noticed that this isn't working? Yes, Bush's numbers are down. But if you don't rise up to seize the moment, people might forget that you even exist.

Let's get it together to sink the Bush battleship instead of hoping it hits a few more iceburgs. Go Feingold!
