Have you helped the FReepers today?
From the FR board today:

Let's face it. . . the dems are so back-stabbing and nasty that they have no quams about eating their own. Their original plan was to show "unity" at the debates to collectively chip away at Bush, but the temptation to take pot-shots at each other was too overwhelming, and their true nature could not be contained. Thus, the intra-party mud slinging has errupted.

Therefore, we have every reason to believe that they will use any ammo they have to knock fellow candidates out of the race. They cannot resist their selfish impulses. So, let's let the other nine dwarves do our dirty work -- exposing Clark -- for us.


I don't want to put a link to their site, but the thread title is KNOCK CLARK OUT OF THE RACE if you want to read the whole thread.

Please, can we stop bashing each other's candidates? I'm new here and I'm sure I'll get flamed for this, but I firmly believe that any of the ten candidates will do a better job than shrub. I'm supporting Clark for now, but in the end I will support the candidate who gets the nomination. I just want * OUT of the White House.

If you can't in good conscience vote for Clark or Kerry or whomever for whatever reasons, that is understandable but please stop with the public bashing. It's divisive and destructive and only impedes our goal of putting a Democrat in office in 2004.

Thanks,
Kayeleigh

1. the sky is not falling
with 10 candidates in the race, of course people are going to be debating their merits. im assuming everyone will line up behind whoever the convention selects but till then this all just seems like healthy debate to me.

2. It's been wicked for the last couple days
Always seems to be the same people too. It's not enough to support their own candidate on his/her own merits, they have to create a shitfest about candidates they feel threatened by. I guess it will just have to run it's course.

Welcome to DU. LOL!:hi:

6. What was the quote from Bill Clinton
at the Harkin shindig last week? Something like, "Democrats fall in love, while Republicans fall in line." Ain't it the truth.
