Wouldn't that require a spine?
Below-the-fold headline in today's Globe: "Emboldened Democrats court party's left wing"
Hmm. Really? How's that again?
Jesus Christ. I'd hate to see what they thought the 'flirting' bit was like that led up to the 'courting'. Mental telepathy? Extremely subtle body language?
Courting me would take something more like repealing the Defense of Marriage Act, actually passing a censure, saying some harsh words, or maybe getting tough with the evesdropping or Abramoff scandals.
Backbone-related activities, rather than this spineless-as-usual hoo-ha. Something that really stirred up the hornet's nest. This is courting soccer moms and the elderly.
Let's get real here. There's work to be done. Forget this 'courting' shit. Let's pander and inflame.

- Former senator John Edwards got high marks from labor for a new effort to unionize hotel workers, and Wisconsin Senator Russ Feingold's demand this week that President Bush be censured was music to the ears of activists on the left.
Meanwhile, Mark Warner, former Virginia governor, recently hired one of the leftist blogosphere's biggest names to run his Internet outreach campaign, and Senator Evan Bayh of Indiana began a blog on the liberal Huffington Post, peddling his foreign policy views.

Courting for me would be impeaching the President for, among other things, violating his oath of office by ordering actions in clear violation of the Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. That would be a start. But no, more Democrats voted for impeaching Clinton because he lied about a blow-job than dared whisper that maybe Bush has done something wrong.
And incidentally, for John Edwards to court my left, he's gotta do a lot more to apologize for trying to dissolve my marriage. What was that difference between the Democratic and Republican candidates in 2004 again?
