Why is it that...
Advertisements [?]
Kerry isn't seen as being angry. Can you imagine the media outrage if Dean had said "Bush fucked up Iraq"? It would have been terrible. What if Dean had made fun of Gandhi? The democratic establishment would have had his head on a platter. If he called Kerry a "junior officer" he would have been hanged drawn and quartered. The media did a hatchet job on Dean, and we should all be very afraid. It's very possible that the Democratic Nominee will get the same in November.

I'm not giving up on Dean, I think there is still hope. If I were to give up on Dean I think that Edwards would be my second choice. The Clark (and some of the Kerry) supporters around here have driven me away from their candidates by the way they've acted. They've played attack politics and then blamed Dean for being negative. I'm not even sure if they are all Democrats. The only candidate I'm really opposed to at this point is Clark. I will support him is it comes down to that, but I don't like his talk of faith, family, and patriotism. Sounds alot like Bush to me. I want a Democrat who is a Democrat. Not a Republican who feels like running for president and is using us because thats his only option. Sorry, but Clark hasn't proven to me that he's a Democrat worthy of my vote, and his supporters here who use 'freeper' tactics haven't swayed my opinion.

I'm waiting for a few weeks before I drop Dean, I don't think he's done yet. In the end I'll support any one to the left of Bush.
