Democrats Abroad Mimic the McCain Campaign - UPDATE
Mcain and Palin didn't win, and in a sense, neither did Democrats Abroad. The children, and they are children for the immature manner in which they behaved, in the end realized they did not want to have this meeting to execute Yanqui Mike.
I guess in the end they realized that it was not going to be a like a cooperate board meeting where the meeting is called to order and in a cold orderly fashion they were going to be able to vent their emotional and maybe factual versions of why Mike should be booted out 2 months before the annual board elections.
I am not sure what they were thinking. I guess they saw this as an orderly event of a group of their friends getting together in their Recoleta living room to hang Yanqui Mike. They were keeping their reasons a big huge secret except for the character assassinations they kept spamming the Democrat Abroad email list.
In the end they misjudged the support that Mike had from friends and fellow bloggers and they wanted to cancel the meeting. From what I understand they tried several times. National would not let them. Once they set the ball in motion they could not stop it. This wasn't high school where your mommy could call the principal and stop the meany man from spitting at you. This was real life.
You see, most of live us here for the long haul. We are not here on and off, or for an adventure, or for a couple of years to see what it is like. We live here permanently. We don't see Democrats Abroad Argentina as a resume item. Mike is part of our immigrant community. Yes he is abrasive, but we saw him building something for the future, not for his resume. Maybe this is the difference between an ex-pat and an immigrant.
In the end, the only way national would cancel the meeting is if the whole executive committee would resign. What a circus. Mike did not want to do it. He had no choice. It was either that or decertify the Democrats Abroad Argentina Chapter. Mike worked way too hard to have the chapter decertified.
So like the biggest bunch of fools this group of DEMOCRATS acted like bigger idiots than the McCain Palin campaign and outsmarted themselves. (The idiots do not include Yanqui Mike who while at times is an idiot, he was not this time.) They were just sooo smart in trying to create this coup to overthrow Mike that they all had to resign. And these guys want to lead Democrats Abroad?
Talk about exercises in futility. So now there is no executive board for Democrats Abroad Argentina. The elections are in two months where a whole new executive board will be elected just like it would have been before all this ex-pat nonsense was started. I nominate Yanqui Mike for President of Democrats Abroad Argentina.....
