Trippi == Nader?
Halley's Comment: Trippi At Poptech Conference:
Joe Trippi worries if Kerry wins it could make the Democratic Party continue to be complacent; if he loses it will shake it up and make it face issues that are long overdue.
I hate this argument. This is exactly what Nader was saying at the end of the campaign in 2000 - that it might not be so bad if Gore lost, since it would "galvanize the left." right, and the country can go down the tubes while the left is getting galvanized.
I'm worried about the future of America, not the Democratic party. I realize it's not that simplistic, but I really believe that enough is at stake that we need to get Bush out. We can hash out the complacency of the Democrats at the midterms.
