Desperate: TPM editor calls DCCC 'your new borderline personality boyfriend/girlfriend'

We’ve been counting on National Review’s Jonah Goldberg to keep us updated on the increasing desperation to be found in Democrat fundraising emails. With email headers like, “I need you,” “please don’t say no jonah,” “disappointed jonah,” “All Hope Is Lost,” and “ACCEPT DEFEAT,” astute Twitchy readers have noted that “It’s like an abusive husband” keeping in touch.

Of course, Goldberg isn’t the only one on the receiving end of the Democrats’ pleas, and liberal Talking Points Memo editor and publisher Josh Marshall and followers are noting a similar trend of increasing desperation.

@joshtpm that's pretty much how you could describe the fundraising phone calls I've had from them. Aggressively unpleasant.

@joshtpm if so many of us think this is unpalatable (and we do) why is DCCC getting such robust hauls of $$$ in response to these appeals?
