Ben Tribbettt Has Put up the Siren...

...what can this mean?  The title is "Coward vs. Hero," and Ben's got the cheesy but effective little red siren alert up there, so I can only imagine.  Can this Democratic primary contest get any nastier?  Something tells me we're going to find out soon enough.  Hold on to your hats, everyone!
[UPDATE:  You know, Ben's whole "Coward versus Hero" thing had me leafing through my copy of "Born Fighting," by James Webb.  Here's are a few words - written about Webb's Scottish ancestors - that Harris Miller and his dozen or so supporters should keep in mind when they attack Webb: "...if any man, no matter how highly born, should strike or offend them, it was their credo to strike back twice as hard." 

Or how about this? 

They were the kind of people who would fight like madmen, then after it was over, look down at a dead friend or relative and cry like babies.  They were the kind of people who would die in place rather than retreat if they had given you their word that they would be there for you.  And they were not the kind of people you would ever, ever, want to set in action against you.

Oh, by the way, I hope you're paying attention to this, George Allen: "you're worst nightmare, you're worst nightmare, you're worst..."]

Why do I suddenly have the urge to parachute out of an airplane behind enemy lines?

Well, if Ben’s readership is as big as he says, than this is a really positive step. Ben really waves the flag for Jim, and he really makes the case for Harris’ moral cowardice for the way he’s chosen to attack Jim via proxies.

Viva Ben! Viva Jim! Down with Harris!

hahahahahaha

I can’t believe I left Lowell an urgent message to call me over that.

Anyway - just goes to show that any progressive really paying attention to this race is getting on board.

Well, I do believe the motto of Scotland is “Nemo me impune lacessit,” which translates roughly to: “Nobody messes with me and gets away with it.”
