My last candidate thread pre-New Rules -- Please Get A Clue Guys!
Once the new DU rulesd are in place, I will try to behave myself. But I can't resist one last vanity thread in the less-restrictive climate.

To Messrs. Kerry, Edwards, Lieberman and Clark and Graham.

Please GET A CLUE! Democrats are not going to win with the same stale mush. Bush is self-destructive, but still there are enough people who buy his nonsense that it is going to be a hard-fought election.

Please offer the people an alternative to Corporate GOP Lite. Take some damn positions other than the "Not Bush" line. Listen to Gephardt on trade and union power, Sharpton on Social Justice. Listen to Mosley Braun on healthcare and other issues of social welfare. And Kucinich on just about everything. Take a tip from Dean about the appeal of straight talk and fire.

Can Democrats go back to being unapologetic Liberals and progressives next year?

1. I would like to see a political solution to the country's problems

It may be possible, it may not be.

2. Does your post really violate the proposed new rules?
If so, I'll be voting no.

6. It's probably borderline
A vanity thread of candidate bashing with a cute headline and no tie-in to any specific event.

Maybe borderline.

3. This is an issues thread, not a thread about a particular candidate
and is not dividing the party or breaking any rules...I can't see that it steps over the line and I AGREE completely.

4. That's why I created this pic.



They're all so good that you can't just pick one.


And yes, he broke rule #1 and #4. Nice huh?

I hope you all vote NO on DU's new draconian rules.

7. Here is my last pre new rules post
Your candidate sucks the big one.
This is not a bash of your candidate.
It's just a fact.
Well, doesn't your candidate sucks the big one?
Not a bash, just curious. Hmm.
