Pinko Magazine Hedonism + Activism

Wilder raises a good question about the target audience for my post below. Here is a excerpt from our IM conversation:

Wilder: As I stated, I think the question comes down to who you think you’re reaching.

Stirling: That is a good question.

Wilder: If you tell my mother she needs to roll up her sleeves, she’ll throw up her hands and say, “Forget it then.”

Stirling: lol. True.

Wilder: You have to tell her how soundly he’s going thump McCain so that she will tell her friends how and why he’s going to thump McCain.

Wilder: And then they’ll be happy and vote for the winner.

Stirling: Thats a good point.

Wilder: And that’s what I mean, if you’re talking to activists, I think you’re dead on.
If you’re talking to normal people, we need to be a pep rally.

Stirling: I guess my point is, Let’s not get to comfortable. But maybe that is just an expression of my own panic?

Stirling: God I hope McCain picks Lieberman…
