DNC sent me an e-mail asking that I support Gore. WTF?

[wisteria]

Yeah,I have been asked to support Gore from all of the right wing attacks and sign a letter of thank you for all his hard work on Global Warming. I am sorry, but this will be taken as an endorsement from Dean to Gore. I am pissed.

1. I will be happy to sign - The problem is why they are not doing the same

thing for Kerry. He is attacked every day by the right.

[TayTay]

2. I agree. I got that too and was offended

Dean should have addressed more than just Gore. He never sent anything out on Cong. Murtha, that I recall. He never sent anything out for Paul Hackett when he was attacked. This smacks of preferential treatment and is a dumb pr move.

3. Pandering to his money base

He'll raise a bundle on that one. Would almost be poetic justice if it ended up going to Hillary in 2008. Almost.

[blm]

4. I'll sign, but they should have done it on Kerry's Iraq withdrawal plan

and his Katrina legislation and his Kid's First legislation.

6. I agree, they should have done it on Kerry's Iraq and other plans. n/t

5. Maybe it's

a sign Gore really isn't running.

[wisteria]

7. I was thinking that too-still, it shouldn't of just singled out Gore.

Why just thank Gore? Kerry and Murtha plus others could use a pat on the back also. It looks like Dean is paying back Gore for his 2004 endorsement.
I am concerned about signing. I am cynical and I fear this is a way to test the waters, to judge how much support Gore has. This is very biased and I am going to let Dean know.
