  Babes founder and play performer Dawn Alden explains, "There's a bit of hand-to-hand combat, but it's the found-object fights that are more fun.They try to kill each other with books, fireplace pokers, chairs, seat cushions, anything they lay their hands on."
  
  But if Dems were really going to have a found-object showdown with Reps, Alden says they'd have to be willing to get their claws out.
  
  She explains, "They both have their strengths and weaknesses, but Democrats are too nice.
