I think it's GOP flatulence. (Stretching a mixed metaphor) Naw! It's merely a MacGuffin!

For example, I see a real change in the power of Latinos emerging. Just wondered what others see.

it wouldn't have attracted the snark.

And there are many snarks on DU. Sometimes they travel in packs, but occasionally they hunt alone.

That during presidential elections we get out the vote and so far during non presidential cycles we dont. We need to change that precedent and overwhelm the assholes in every election cycle until they are truly in the dustbin of history. After 08 everybody was joyous at the death of the assholes then came 10 whoops the asshole took dump all over us. Have we learned, I say no as there are posts active right now talking about the death of the assholes. Dont get complacent people continue to GOTV

Yeah, right. If you don't think the undead corpse of the Republican party can get up and start creating mayhem again you've not been paying sufficient attention for the last forty years.
