The Shape Of Things To Come

Ohio's 2nd Congressional District just had a special election today -- and in a district that went Republican in 2004 by a 44% margin, a Democrat lost today by 4%.

Not just any Democrat -- Paul Hackett, an Iraqi War veteran and lawyer who called Bush and Cheney "chickenhawks" every chance he got, and talked about how the Iraq War was a terrible mistake from the start, and how we need to talk about an exit strategy -- now. He didn't apologize, and he didn't back down.

Be afraid of plainspoken Truman-Dean-Hackett Democrats, ye NeoCon traitorous filth.

Be very afraid.
