Today, The Deadline Poet (Calvin Trillin) looks askance at the probable Donkey candidates in Red-State elections in 2014. The attack ads funded by the Dumbos/Morons have the Donkeys running scared. The HST-model is best: give the Dumbos/Morons hell until they cry for mercy. That should be the plan for Senators Begich (AK), Hagan (NC), Pryor (AR), and Landrieu (LA). If this is (fair & balanced) political advice, so be it.

By The Deadline Poet (Calvin Trillin)
Tag Cloud of the following piece of writing
Delay the pipeline? I’m opposed.
Support Obamacare? Not I.
Though, yes, he is the president,
I hardly even know the guy. Ω
