mdlbear said it in his two latest posts, here and here .

mdlbear has written with great eloquence here about why we need to vote Democratic in the fall.  Though I probably won't change anyone's mind, I need to pass this along.  If you think there is no difference between Republicans and Democrats, if you think that you should vote for a third candidate because the Democrat doesn't exactly suit you, please think again.  This country used to work...

A friend of mine, mdlbear , is writing a song. It's so awesome that I thought I would share it with the all of you who don't have his lj.

Perhaps my standards for something deserving to be properly CALLED a 'con-report' are too high, but they're mine, and I like them. :-> So I'll just tell you about my weekend and we'll see what happens, shall we?
