Blunt Out!

Young Master Blunt has decided to bow out of the Governor's race. It looks like Nixon beat him just by fighting early, by never giving up, by being ready to to stand up to GOP slime. Like most bullies, GOPers don't have the stomach for a real fight. They just slink away and look for easier pickings.

But this fight is not over. After the GOP primary, some other silk-suited Republican mobster will be propped up by the fat-cat lobbyists, and Jay will have a fight on his hands. So we have to keep working, talking, calling, knocking. We can never let up if we want to rid this state and country of Republican misgovernment.

Long Time No Post

Well, we've taken a little breather from politics for a few weeks. With finals and Christmas and New Year's, it just did not seem the time for railing about Republican evil. To everything there is a season, and the season for beating the GOP into oblivion is definitely here. This blog now shifts into organization mode. We will be talking about ways YOU can work to put people into office who are not corporate robots or right-wing fundamentalists. We will not take sides in Democratic primary races, because ANY Dem is a better choice than ANY Republican. We just thank anyone on the Democratic side for stepping up. Every candidate we field is someone they have to put resources up against. (We do reserve the right to be skeptical about late-minute party switchers. The Paul Morrison debacle in Kansas is a good lesson about that.)

So as the season gets really rolling, look here for information about how you can get involved in the Raytown area for canvasses and other types of volunteering.

It's go time, folks.
