It's not just George McGovern the American people dislike
Liberalism: Not Popular
Liberal Democrat (if, like George McGovern, heroic veteran) Paul Hackett has lost to Republican Jean Schmidt. Schmidt's predecessor, Rob Portman, is now President Bush's Trade Representative.
The election was interesting to South Dakotans because our leftwing blogs shut down to elect an Ohioan Democrat. (As someone who volunteered in Iowa, I am shocked!) What can I say? I'm happy it didn't work out for them.
Not that such comments will stop instarevisionism
New Ohio Democratic superstar Paul Hackett went into the lion's den of pure Red Southern Ohio and scared the pants off of the GOP losing by less than 4 points in the face of a NRCC promise to "bury him."
No spin - the GOP is on the run.
Congratulations to Southern Ohio Democrats, the Lefty blogs, especially Swing State Project, and Dems everywhere. We have delivered a lesson - Fighting Dems will win the day.
On to 2006, when we take back the Congress.
If Democrats keep "winning" like this, looks like easy days ahead for us Righists. :-)
Not that the rank and file believe that
The very first comment on Daily Kos began...

What's the deal with the burning constitution picture and the DHS seal? Statement about the Patriot Act, perhaps?

Joshua,
You are the first person to ask -- which is odd, as it is an unusual graphic!
"tdaxp" forkd off from http://aaron.mmi.net/, a Dakota State University expatriote community blog. My icon there was more jovial (http://aaron.mmi.net/images/userphotos/khanate.JPG). The blog administrator gave my topic a pic of the burning constitution (http://aaron.mmi.net/images/fire.jpg), to friendily mock my political beliefs ("The Administration burning the Constitution. How appropriate").
The original is from http://thedailygrindblog.blogspot.com/2004/10/big-brother-bush-co-get-constitution.html.
Considering my poor graphic design skills (http://tdaxp.blogspirit.com/archive/2005/05/16/rejected_tdaxp_banners.html) it's not like there was a real choice! :)

That other icon wasn't jovial. It's kinda nightmarish.
And while we're on this, what does "tdaxp" stand for?

LOL
I never thought of it as a nightmare! But it's from such a friendly moment.. a state of the union address! And he's the President!

Running my new Windows XP computer for the first time in my dorm at Zimmerman Hall at DSU, I remember being enraged. "If Windows can be an eXPerience, so can I! If there can be a Windows eXPerience, then the world must have The DAn eXPerience as well.""
And thus was born the name of the most modest blogger in the world... And a tagline too boisterous even for the blogosphere: "You don't read Dan tdaxp ... you experience him!"
