WIPEOUT
I want to see a wipeout. It’s not enough, friends and readers, to merely beat them. I want to see a wipe out. I want to clean their clocks and wipe the floor with them. I want to see our margin of victory so large, so amazing that they won’t know what hit them.
We have a few things on our side that will make this wish a reality. Republicans work less hard than we do. Oh, they try. But they ALWAYS seem to get sidetracked by their own weirdness, by outrage at the latest food or drink that they must boycott, and by infighting that has been tearing them apart for years.
No, they have anger but no way do they have our PASSION, our determination, our inabilty to stop which are traits that define activism. Yes, we need to have a wipe-out. We want a wipeout. They want a whiteout.
The GOP wants a whiteout. That is their ultimate goal. A white-out blanketing America, a whiteout with the winners being petulant, insolent white Christian MEN, a Whiteout so vast, so completely glowingly white that it wipes out all the other colors of the rainbow — like Black and brown and gold.
We envision a wipe-out that will leave them speechless, mouths hanging open in shock, jaws dropping to the FLOOR. We have candidate quality on our side; We have money on our side. We have passion on our side. All these things form the magic wipe-out I speak of.
Some things we must leave in the dust:
Complacency.
We must ALWAYS run like we’re behind. We can never ever, not in a million tears, assume we’ve got it in the bag. That is a big-non-no. As you know, in politics — anything can happen.
We must remain on offense.
When one is explaining, they’re losing. That’s defense. That position is not for us.
Offense, offense, offense.
We must also continue to use attacks like weird.” Weird works. I was on a message board of thousands the other day, and 90% of Democrats on that board were using it.
It works because it is authentic. It’s an authentic soundbite that defines the GOP.
We must keep the faith. Please do not allow negativity to infect you. Pundits are searching for it; right now, there WILL come a day when the Jake Tappers and Katy Tur’s of the world grow bored and then negativity might make an appearance,
Just say no, ignore it. A big, beautiful WIPEOUT is on the horizon for us. Let’s embrace it, reach for it, and make it ours.
