Watching KO Replay --Maddow gets it right. "Fighting back works..."

She said the Dem Leadership is going to have to get away from the inside the beltway consultant groups and realize that "fighting back works... fighting for the constitution... and against the war." She then noted the $4.2 mil raised in one day by Repub Paul, and the recent uptick for Dem Dodd who said he would put a hold on the FISA bill.

She is right of course.

Hopefully Dem Leadership is listening.....

4. Worse, they're listening to consultants and themselves.

Neither which group has the foggiest notion of what's going on in the hearts of the public.

I bet Bob Shrum and Donna Brazille are somewhere in the background at Dem strategy meetings.

5. Only for Republicans

When Democrats try it they get ambushed by their own Party.

6. Democrats may find that there are huge majorities behind them if they 'fight back'...

... and that may play out with the Kucinich impeachment resolution.
