That was the first time I saw his full response (had just seen print). Spot on. I think that's going to be part of his stump speech now. I just still don't get it. Do they not realize that their are "community organizers" in every community in the country, both large and small? I would have thought Miss "I'm just a small town moose skinner" would get that. After all, she "knows" small town folks so well.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('16189','Joseph'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('16189','Joseph','Oh and Thanks!

VERY EFFECTIVE! Particularly given her being the charmer of the evangelical right. The best explanation of the "community organizer" code I saw today, which as bad as it sounds, sounded plausible to me is the following. To the crowd on the floor: COMMUNITY = GHETTO ORGANIZER = ACTIVIST It surprised me how derisive and smug the reaction was whenever that bone was tossed out to them.

To the crowd on the floor:

COMMUNITY = GHETTO
ORGANIZER = ACTIVIST

It surprised me how derisive and smug the reaction was whenever that bone was tossed out to them.
