Have you seen the commercial in which Steve Pearce puts Heather Wilson with Tom Udall as — gasp! — a liberal? Heather a liberal? That just fucking nuts, Steve. Still, it may be having some effect among Republicans because Heather has responded with a commercial identifying herself as an effective conservative. Of course, the hardcore sees “effective” as synonymous with compromising which equals weak and impure, so any suggestion that she isn’t willing to burn this village to save it may cost her votes.

It’s great to see two Republicans slash and tar each other — it’s a blood sport we don’t often see and further evidence that the Republican party is *doomed* this year. Still, it’s heartening to see them cling to old and no longer effective tactics.

Meanwhile, dim Darren White says he doesn’t want to see health care being managed by the same bureaucrats who screwed up after Katrina. LOL! Those Bush appointees will be gone soon, Sheriff, back to their old jobs at Madison Avenue and the Oil Industry, pockets stuffed with whatever they can loot before then. peace, mjh
