Kick Whose What?

By Big Tent Democrat

Strange headline of the day from Jane Hamsher:

Ha Ha. F**k You, Harry Reid. Kicking Your A** is Going To Be Fun.

Jane then highlights a Mason Dixon poll showing 2 Republicans beating Reid in a head to head matchup. Unless Jane became a Republican last night, how precisely is she proposing to to "kick Reid's A**?" Is she now a Sue Lowndes or Danny Tarkanian supporter? Or does she have a secret primary challenger we do not know about?

It's fun to write "Right now, Harry Reid is doing what he always intended to do — take the public option out of the bill. You’re just the last to know." But what does that mean for a** kicking?

I'm all for preemptive activism, but the structure of Hamsher's post does not make sense to me. Promise him hell if he betrays you - but do not predict he will betray so you can give him hell. I like my activists to be uncompromising. But I also like them to make sense. This post from Hamsher does not have logic on its side imo.

Speaking for me only
