The Runup to Election 2006
September 28, 2006
What kind of pre-election teeth gnashing can we expect from Democrats this election season? Here’s a look back at some of the hysteria from the 2004 cycle:

T/F: I, V. believe most of what I write on wikistan.

please don’t tell me vinman is your ‘blog persona’…

I’m always amazed by the Republicans’ vastly entertaining notion of creativity.
uh, , this was from a fundraiser. This is where you get the redmeat stuff from both parties.
