Why shouldn't the netroots (and others) "Primary" you in 2010?

A lot of people have been upset over the perceived "bending over like a blade of grass in a light breeze" the Democratic-controlled congress has been engaged in every time the Bush administration trumpets out its tried and true "Ooooh! Terrorists! Booogabooogaboooo! Terrorists!! BoooogaBooogaBooo!" line.

We're especially concerned over the so-called compromise of telecom amnesty and FISA and its fig leaves that only allow a court to decide if the Bush administration asked them to break the law. This doesn't protect our privacy or rights to due process . . . well . . . at all really, and certainly doesn't help to bring to light any of the corruption or abuse of power we suspect was going on.

Why do you keep selling us up the river?
And, as a follow up, will you please stop?

Please?

Sheehan's got too much baggage. I'd prefer Pelosi if that's my only other option. I'd rather see a strong primary opponent who calls her on FISA and repeated capitualtion of the house under her watch.

I think this question really needs to be asked, but it needs some elaboration. The bankruptcy bill was a big wet kiss to the credit card companies. Maybe something along the lines of:

"What do you plan to do to strengthen consumer protections against skyrocketing fees, interest rates and predatory lending practices by credit card companies?
