Moving to the Center (Part 2); Dodd Bitter-Enders

by Damozel | I wrote at some length on this issue.  But you can skip the whole thing and just refer to Brad at Sadly, No!:

Candidates have traditionally moved toward the center after winning their primaries to attract more undecided voters. Except that that isn’t happening with John McCain, who has if anything gotten crazier in recent months....How does this happen? How has wingnuttery so poisoned our elections that both candidates are striving to show the rest of the country just how stupid and crazy they are? Don’t we need, to coin a phrase, a choice not an echo?.

Here's a thought.  Gavin (also at SN) proposes:

Maybe we can become Chris Dodd bitter-enders.

[ahem] Personally, I shall never in all my life forget the howling persecution that we endured from the O-bot smear machine and the Clintonazi long-knifers. They have tried to marginalize us, but ho! now we will band together and marginalize them.

Yes, as Dodd is our witness, it will be “unity” on our terms.
