The extremists are taking over the party!
A few days ago, the left-wing activist group MoveOn.org began sending out emails seeking contributions to fund primary challenges against any Democratic senator who does not fully support “health care reform with a public option.” Now there’s an update: MoveOn executive director Justin Ruben says the group has raised $3,578,117 for the project and is thinking of new ways to punish errant Democratic lawmakers.
Haven’t we heard this somewhere before? Oh yeah, from Obama lackey Valerie Jarrett:
White House adviser Valerie Jarrett said Scozzafava’s pullout under pressure “tells a lot about where the Republican leadership is right now.” They are “more and more extreme and more and more marginalized,” she said on ABC’s “This Week.”
Hey, Val, you might want to give George Soros a ring and let him know he’s going to be marginalized.

The one-way bias of the left is so transparent

Meanwhile the official masters of the Democratic party’s money are doing like you said: “It’s okay if you call yourself a moderate Democrat as long as you vote like a liberal Democrat. If you don’t we will throw you out.”
Just look at what happen to Sen. Lieberman

DerKrieger Friday, November 6th at 8:42AM EST (link)I called my Senator, Blanche Lincoln, and told her that she need not worry about a challenge from the Left but rather she should worry about a challenge from the Right. This Arkansas after all and not California.
“In questions of power, let no more be heard of confidence in man, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the Constitution.” - Thomas Jefferson
“I cannot undertake to lay my finger on that article of the Constitution which granted a right to Congress of expending, on objects of benevolence (OBAMACARE – mine), the money of their constituents.” – James Madison
I hope they go after her

THERE ARE NO GOP MODERATES
beanerecmo Friday, November 6th at 1:19PM EST (link)there are only fascist social welfare collectivists and conservatives. The dems don’t care one wit about conservative principles or those held by so-called GOP moderates; they only want their naive votes. Dems please take Scozzafava, Newt, Snowe, Collins, Sessions, McCain, Graham, Bloomberg et al.
I was a liberal until I learned to read, got a job and was mugged by weak-willed tax and spend politicians and their naive acolytes.
They really think they have been too moderate..
illinoisconservative Friday, November 6th at 3:41PM EST (link)If you were to go over to the daily kooks and read the front page stories by their fearless leader and others (huffpost too), you will see they think they lost in VA and NJ because they haven’t been liberal enough!
They really think the “base” stayed home on Tuesday because Obama’s wacky policies have not been adopted fast enough. Their reasoning is that the base is disenchanted. Really.. they actually believe this stuff.
The solution? Purge all moderates through primary threats and pass healthcare, cap and tax and immigrations reform as fast as possible. Oh yeah.. they also want to do another stimulus.. this time even bigger.
The dopes don’t get that independents and even a good part of their base has seen just how crazy they are. Let’s give ‘em a nice surprise in 2010, shall we?
