The beautiful, beautiful carnage.

I’m not even going to dignify that Ashley Todd bullshit with a response; I’ll leave that to John McCain, if he has any decency left in him after these past few days on the campaign trail trainwreck.

In other news: the Republicans’ carefully-constructed, highly-funded think tanks have unraveled and are making my evening television hour a whole lot more fun.

One thing Republicans have always been good at is uniting behind a candidate. Streamlining their message and making sure everyone is nodding along to the same tune. Now, they can’t even hold it together for 8 days?

It’s just…beautiful. All of this discord from a party that all have the same ideals: stay away from my money. And we, the Democrats– the mongrels of politics, the mixed-bag of minority constituencies, the land of misfits–are united in one resounding chorus of “yes, we can.”

Everything we thought we knew about politics in America has shifted. Democrats outspending Republicans. Republicans arguing amongst themselves. Democrats leading in states like Virginia. Republicans trying to pander to the middle and lower classes!

Our country has been turned upside down, and it’s never looked better.
