Salon: Running blue in a red state: Why it's important

Consider the story of the person who runs toward a car crash or into a burning building. Tripp Narup would never equate what he is doing with an act of heroism, but I'm happy to do so. The impulse is pretty much the same.

He's not trying to save an individual's life but the life of the Democratic Party in his part of Iowa.

1. On one hand..

I fear for my female child that lives in this back-assward state. On the other hand, I am a proud mother knowing I raised a child who stands firm in her convictions AND walks the walk (as in helps others - the child who dislikes filling out income tax forms BUT is NOT intimated by green card/citizenship applications for those needing help).
I will say that IF the time ever comes where her reproductive health is in jeopardy, I will have NO QUALMS OR FEARS to get her the hell out of that state and to our home state to save her life/reproductive health. For some dumb-ass reason, pukes don't think Democrats have guns. We do, we likely have a lot of them but they aren't substitutes for what we lack in our pants.

2. I'm a Democrat

My parents were Democrats and I know how to handle firearms. Part of growing up in Iowa, more or less. Lots of hunting and fishing here.
