I wrote this as a comment on an article at http://www.thenewsenterprise.com/cgi-bin/c2.cgi?053+article+News.Local+20090827191404053053 019. I plan to use the same text in other places, so I welcome feedback to make it better. Also, feel free to borrow from it when you're adding comments elsewhere:

Kentucky Fight

A peaceful revolution is brewing in this country. You see it in the Tea Parties and Town Hall meetings, where average Americans are rising up in protest against the ruling class of big government in bed with big business.

Nothing tells the story better than the bailouts, in which the politicians took hundreds of billions of dollars from the taxpayers and gave it to big business. And it's not just Obama and the Democrats. 17 of the 23 RINO Senators throwing the fundraising dinner for Trey Grayson voted for the bailout!

One key difference between Trey Grayson and Rand Paul is where their money comes from. Trey gets it from Washington insiders and lobbyists, and Paul gets his from ordinary Americans. Trey has thousands of people writing checks for thousands of dollars each, and Paul has tens of thousands of individuals contributing $25 and $100. So who will Grayson be beholden to if he gets to Washington? And who will he have to appease to get reelected?

September 23 is Kentucky Fight, a no-hold-barred cage match between the DC Insiders Fundraising Dinner and the We the People Internet Money Bomb. It's time to get angry!
