1. So what's the Freeper position?
Yes, she should run? That would be advocating a vote of no confidence for the Speaker. That sounds like a Freeper.

No, she shouldn't run? Well, we can't afford to have a national dialog on bringing the troops home or impeaching the chimp. Yep, that's Freeper logic.

So ... which is it?

2. Looks like the former
I put on my radioactive suit and went over there and it looks like they are mostly very happy about Sheehan challenging Pelosi.

So I voted "Mostly positive" and "No"

5. Hardly surprising ... with Sheehan splitting the Democratic/Independent left vote...
they probably think there's a chance of getting a Republican elected to one of the most liberal districts in the country.

However, a quick look at the numbers and you realize the ridiculousness of that proposition — Pelosi took about 101k votes in the 2006 election, compared to 13k for the Republican. Even if the Democratic/independent left vote split 50/50 between Pelosi and Sheehan, the Republican still wouldn't stand a chance.

10. I agree with Razor and Smiley ... what's the point?


She's in the party of Lieberman now.

Sorry, but she is no longer in the Democratic Party. If she wants to bitch and moan about Democrats, fine --- but she needs to spread the wealth and talk about the 'Republic' Party as well.

I won't bother with AOL and their little poll and leave it to the Freaks at Freeperville.

BTW... What ever becomes of those AOL polls? At least the ones on CNN (and sometimes MSNBC) announce the end results of the polls.. What happens with the AOL polls when they complete them? Are they just sucked up into the ozone?

13. Was she EVER a Democrat, really?
She voted for Bush and his War.

7. Looks like it's been Freeped big time
Not surprising, since AOL boards are crawling with those low life sons of bitches.

17. How many DUers do you think voted...
"Mostly Negative" and "No"? Hint: I'm willing to bet there are several of us.

14. I dislike Cindy Sheehan.
She was a good publicist against the war. She's been issuing dopier and dopier announcements since then.

16. "Mostly Negative" and "No".
Actually, "Almost Completely Negative" or "Crazy as Hell" would have been better options.

19. UnFreep what?
I don't see how she's effectively furthering much of anything at this point...other than herself...
