Rep. Grayson sizes up his opposition:
Edited on Thu Aug-19-10 01:15 PM by Smarmie Doofus
From a fundraising email:


>>>>>>Dear ( Smarmie)
In the run-up to our Money Bomb on Monday, we've been introducing you to my rogues' gallery of opponents. First Dan Fanelli, the racist. Then Bruce O'Donoghue, the tax cheat. Then Kurt Kelly, the warmonger.
Today, it's Todd Long, the drunk driver.
Not Todd Long, guy who has been caught for drinking and driving, but now wants to make laws for all of us. Todd Long. The Constitutionalist.
Who was arrested for passing out drunk. In a schoolyard. 250 miles from home.
What was he doing in that schoolyard? Use your imagination.>>>>>>>>




So tell us what ya' really feel, Alan. Washington will be ... among other things.... a lot more dull if he loses. "Dull" in both senses of the word.

One thing for sure: I'm glad he's on my side.

3. One of his GOP opponents wants to do away with Social Security.



I read that here on DU within the past few days. Just imagine --- trying to get votes in Florida with one
of your platform planks being abolishing Social Security. I was ROFLMAO. WTF is that asshole thinking!?


Grayson should have no trouble at all winning. And I know he will.

5. I like Grayson. A lot. I got that email too, because I've contributed to his campaign.
But I don't like the tactic of making vague insinuations like this sentence does:

"What was he doing in that schoolyard? Use your imagination"

I think that's a low tactic and he should be above that.

6. yea I agree he needs to be above that
He simply needs to hammer all of them on what the R party stands for. That's enough.

7. Agreed. If he doesn't have someone smart proofing his stuff he should get someone.
OTOH: this part is clever; the tone pitch perfect and the substance fair game:



>>>>>What has Todd Long ever done for the people? In the many years that he has spent on this beautiful blue marble, floating in space, what has done to improve the lives of his fellow human beings?
Answer: Nothing. And if he's done nothing to help other people before he's elected to Congress, it's a good bet that he'll go right on doing nothing after he's elected to Congress.>>>>>>
