Like I said, I very well could have misinterpreted his intention with the use of words like "I" and "we." But that doesn't change the fact that the entire letter was nothing but demagoguery, and as such... only serves to pump up those who already agree with him.
I'm one of those people who agree with him. I'm already on board. And I don't think the "THIS. IS. SPARTA!!" speech will do anything to sway people from the other side (let alone phase Christopher Dodd one bit), but I'm sure it felt pretty good.
