Working Families Party and ACORN in the hood.

I was working in the garage at Rancho de BCP here on Long Island the other night. I thought I heard someone knocking on the front door. A few seconds later I saw a young twenty something fellow come into view. He saw me and stopped. He held a clipboard with a petition or poll and mentioned he was from the Working Families Party. He asked if I could answer a few questions. I looked at him and said I really don't care for groups that are associated with ACORN. He stopped and said I understand and then just walked away. Looks like the organizers for the radical left group ACORN and the Working Families party are counting on the uninformed voters not knowing about the ACORN/Working Families connection. But, I am not one of those voters.

Eating their own.

The Washington Post has an article on left wing bloggers attacking moderate Democrats like Rep. Ellen O. Tauscher in California because they feel she is not strong enough against the war for their left wing agenda. It is amazing to me how such left wing Democrats can turn on moderates of their own party like Representative Tauscher and in the process will probably help Republicans in 2008 by destroying such moderate Democrats. It's one thing to be against the war it's another thing to help hand ammunition to the Republicans. But, the Dems have their crazy ideologues as the Republicans have to deal with theirs. The important thing for the rest of us is to make sure these crazies of both parties don't destroy the people on the middle ground where the common sense lies.
