1. "We need your money!"
Only one Ive heard. Funny they cant stick to federal matching fund limits. Im sure they are just biding their time until they can institute campaign finance reform. OMFG, that IS the funniest thing Ive said all day!

4. money cant buy happiness
Edited on Sun Oct-26-03 01:07 AM by tinanator
but it buys hella influence. Now, exactly who's money do you think they will be influenced by? Yours?
The opposition already has, and always has had, more money than GOD.
Its completely self defeating to think that more money is the solution to a corrupt system. Perhaps the purest non-sequitor (or is it an oxymoron? I can never keep that straight!) in the world of logic.

8. the people with the most influence over Dean are "average Americans"
61% of the $14.8 million he raised in Q3 was in the form of donations < $200.

yeah… we need a whole lot less of that in America.

:crazy:

5. Did you respond to something you heard yesterday?
Edited on Sun Oct-26-03 01:05 AM by usregimechange
That doesn't seem to flow with the topic of this thread. Dean is running for president. He says things. Those are called quotes. I can use them to motivate local supporters. We can do this to plant a shrub in Crawford. Won't you help?

7. Trippi solicits constantly
Edited on Sun Oct-26-03 01:11 AM by tinanator
and if you think Dean can beat GW's corporate media stranglehold, I wish I had a bridge to relieve you of all that wasted money with.
But if I had to pick another quote, howabout "I'm the only anti-war candidate!" Yeah, he wouldnt lie, repeatedly, to your face. Although that would seem Presidential, these days, wouldnt it?

2. "I'm the only candidate that talks about race
in front of white audiences"

or

"Take America back!"

an original slogan, not a recycled slogan used by former Trippi candidates such as Jerry Brown.

If you guys don't support Dean, why post here? Are we all Democrats?

9. If you are looking for cheerleading responses exclusively
Dean has a blog, and there are numerous Dean blogs such as Daily Kos too.

It's not a requirement to like or support Dean to post here.

10. ?
"It's not a requirement to like or support Dean to post here."

No but you seem inclined to criticize and disrupt efforts to defeat Bush. Dividing this party will not do that!

12. I posted my favorite quotes
Whether you approve of my choices isn't my concern. Here is a blog where you will get many responses from Dean supporters, and probably more responses to your liking.

11. NO, but it is a requirement to abide by DU rules!
That being flamebait and I believe this is flamebait. It's all good in posting your opinion in a thread, but you can do it without attacking a candidate of whom the thread was addressing.
