Anti-War protest in DC

[mburbank]

I think the idea behind the protest is to let people running in the mid terms, and beyonbd that, people thinking about a run in the next Presidential, that a lot of people believe that the invasion was wrong and that we are making things worse by staying.

I think the conventional wisdom is 'only an idiot would support pulling out'. I think the point of a protest like this is to build momentum toward making an ongoing public statement that there are a growing number of voters (and if someone has the innitiative to show up at a protest, you can be pretty certain they'll vote) who disagree with the conventional wisdom.

If you stay silent, politicians will assume that you are onboard with the program.
