Has the frantic, anxiety-ridden panic of the RW spread to the Left? It feels like it.

:wtf:

I'm not necessarily talking about DU. I see it on sites like Daily Kos.

I guess that is what "wee weed up" means and it is still going strong.

The ground game seems to definitely be shifting into gear. I got canvassed at my house by a HealthCare NOW group supporting Obama's plan and they are compiling a list of area people supporting it. I'm not sure exactly what they are going to do with it. I also got called by MoveOn about attending a local rally and e-mails by too many groups to count. That's all great.

Of course, the media is all doom and gloom.

It feels like the entire country needs a timeout or a Valium or something.

1. I think its two sides to the same feeling that our government no longer

represents the average American.

The right gets angry and grabs their guns, the left gets riddled with anxiety, but in the end both sides are actually upset for the same reason.

Heaven help our politicians if the two groups ever figure out they are both pissed for the same reasons and put aside the corporate manufactured issues (abortion, worship of capitalism, health care) and align themselves to actually put this country back on track.
