This is a questions we’re asking ourselves more and more lately, upon witnessing the utter travesty that’s taking place in Washington these days. 

What Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid are doing in Congress is illegal, criminal, treasonous, and unconstitutional.  We’re talking, of course, about the plot to ram through Utopiacare using backdoor, secret, reconcilliation means instead of voting this important, world-changing legislation up or down properly in the House and Senate. 

We’re lifelong Democrats around here…whose faith in the party was first shaken by the way the DNC backed Dr. Utopia and used all its resources to bring down Hillary Clinton last year.  The final straw broke our backs on May 31st, 2008 around 5pm or so when we heard news the DNC had awarded Dr. Utopia some of Hillary Clinton’s Michigan delegates.  That outrage will never be forgotten. They actually TOOK delegates away from a woman who earned them because they wanted to give them to a black man who did absolutely nothing for them. How the Democrats have behaved since taking over all three branches of government has been stomach-turning.  If it weren’t for the Clintons, who we will always be loyal to, we’d no longer call ourselves Democrats.  We’d be independents, or members of the new Tea Party that’s forming…whatever that ultimately turns out to be.  Not Green, not Libertarian, not anything that exists currently, but something else…something PUMA-flavored that’s still brewing.

But, as long as the Clintons are Dems, we’re right there with them. Some of you out there can’t understand our loyalty to them, but the Clintons have always been good to all of us, and we believe in them like no other family on the planet.  Bill, Chelsea, and most of all Hillary, will ALWAYS be the public figures we support most and back no matter what.  Many of us year spent every cent we had in 2008 helping them, and never regret one bit of that. It is our most sincere hope in this world one of them runs for elected office again so we can once more be boots on the ground under their banner.  The three of them wake up every morning doing whatever they can to make this country stronger and life here better for all Americans…and for that, we can get up each day and work hard following their example as best we can too.

So, in reality, we’re more Clintonites than we are Democrats.  

And we hope to Olympus on high that what Pelosi and Reid are trying to pull with reconciliation leads to massive liberal defeat in 2010.  We want all the moderate Dems siding with the Clintons to win, but all the Kool-Aid Kids in Dr. Utopia’s fold to go down with Harry Reid and lose re-election.  We want it to be an absolute ROUTE. And we want that to lead to a full-on Democrat Civil War to take back our party from the loony left.  

We hope moderate Dems and independents team up with Republicans in 2010 and create a tidal wave that makes the Contract with America rebuff of 1994 look like a Kool-Aid backwash.

It would be best, in terms of defeating Dr. Utopia in 2012, if Democrats just barely retain the House and Senate.  This way, Pelosi and new-Senate Majority Leader Dick Durbin have two years to make fools of themselves before the 2012 elections.  If Republicans win the House and Senate, or either of the two, then Democrats have someone to blame for things for two years.  We don’t want to see that happen.  Harry Reid seems likely to be defeated no matter what, but it would take a miracle for San Franciscans to vote out Pelosi.  It’s a safe bet she’ll remain Speaker, making cat videos or whatever it is she does all day, and that’s a large part of what’s needed to ensure Dr. Utopia’s a loser of a one-term president.

It was an odd position being Chicagoans who rooted for our city to lose the 2016 Olympics.  We strongly feel that by losing those games, and suffering that humiliating Oprah and Mrs. Utopia-related defeat, that the city is stronger and better able to face the challenges of the future.  

We also believe that as Democrats, true Democrats of the moderate vein, a strong defeat of the liberal agenda in 2010 and 2012 is needed if the party’s ever going to come back to the Clintonian center.

The DNC has moved so far into the alien territory of the Alinsky-Obama-Ayers Left that it’s unrecognizable to us.  

The ONLY thing that’s keeping us around is that we can use the defeats in 2010 as an opening to take back the party and return Clinton centrists as our focus.  

We don’t know how others out there feel, but that’s where we sit here in Boystown.
