Get prepared. Anything and everything ridiculous will be on the table. If I actually saw that headline I would not be surprised.
I told my mother this morning that Clinton would now be "taking the gloves off". She laughed loudly and said, "Well, what has she been doing so far then?" Exactly. A negative Brock-ian campaign that only will get worse.
Our job is to keep engaging with voters and keep spreading the message. NY is 13 days away. 5-10 calls per day gets us in touch with far more voters. We need this one.
But be prepared for the worst. Especially from our own DUers

(115,836 posts)Rumor has it that he doesn't put the cap back on the toothpaste tube (after squeezing it from the middle). And some people say he has been known to leave the toilet seat up. And did you hear that he once put a plastic bottle in the recycling bin for paper?
We will hear all kinds of petty shit. Keep laughing.

An area where she seldom looks back is her relationship with her father.
As a little girl, if Hillary Rodham forgot to screw the cap back on the toothpaste, her father would toss the tube out the bathroom window. She would scurry around in the snow-covered evergreen bushes outside their suburban Chicago home to find it and return inside to brush her teeth, reminded, once again, of one of Hugh E. Rodhams many rules.
When she lagged behind in Miss Metzgers fourth-grade math class, Rodham would wake his daughter at dawn to grill her on multiplication tables. When she brought home an A, he would sneer: You must go to a pretty easy school.
He would hurl criticism at his wife around the kitchen table at 235 Wisner St. When she encouraged Hillary to learn for learnings sake, Hugh Rodham, who drove a Cadillac, would quip: Learn for earnings sake. If his children asked for an allowance for their many household chores, he would reply bluntly: I feed you, dont I?
The family was isolated from its neighbors because of Rodhams sour, demeaning nature and his misanthropic tendencies, said Carl Bernstein, who wrote a 2007 biography of Hillary Clinton, A Woman in Charge. It was anything but Father Knows Best, Bernstein said in an interview.
The brusque son of an English immigrant and a coal miners daughter in Scranton, Pennsylvania, Hugh Rodham, for most of his life, harbored prejudices against blacks, Catholics and anyone else not like him. He hurled biting sarcasm at his wife and only daughter and spanked, at times excessively, his three children to keep them in line, according to interviews with friends and a review of documents, Clintons writings and former President Bill Clintons memoir.
