1. Could you add a few options?
1. Gephardt
2. Kerry
3. Supporters of Gephardt and Kerry
4. Too soon to tell

I believe the candidates themselves, at least Kerry, probably had nothing to do with it. Their former supporters, however, apparently did.

15. His supporters
were actually staff members or fund raisers.

It is how our wonderful democracy works ..

DC is DoD one day .. CEO halliburton .. VP

Just because you leave someone's employ (in washington) does not mean you are not still working for their inerests.

If these people refuse to say who they support (donor list out in Feb), it can safely be assumed they are still *presumably* working for the interests of Kerry and Gep. Who's interest would they be serving here? "Democrats"? Which democrats?

Since the campaigns of K&G haven't been going so well, let's see how effective the tactics of their former staffers are.

4. HAHAHA
Dean/Trippi? Yeah, they've got so much money, they are running 'pre-emptive' attack ads on themselves, just for practice. And they are then hiring gobs of staffers from others campaigns and having them do the lifting. Oh wait, is that a joke? Is the fact that it's in a run for the tie supposed to indicate something?

7. Your vicious attacks on the other Dem candidates leads me to suspect
the Dean campaign! Is that your goal here? If so, congratulations. You make "your" candidate look really vile. I like to think that all the Dem candidates are honest and speaking the truth as they see it, and that they are decent, even if imperfect, human beings. Your unremittingly divisive tactics lead me to wonder about Dean, and then to wonder about your intent. Is that the significance of your pseudonym?

16. my theory
City sidewalk, busy sidewalks
Dressed in holiday style.
In the air there's a feeling of Christmas.

Children laughing, people passing,
Meeting smile after smile,
And on every street corner you'll hear:

Silver bells, silver bells,
It's Christmas time in the city.
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring,
Soon it will be Christmas day.

City street lights, even stop lights,
Blink a bright red and green,
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures.

Hear the snow crunch, see the kids bunch,
This is Santa's big scene,
And above all this bustle you'll hear:

Silver bells, silver bells,
It's Christmas time in the city.
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring,
Soon it will be Christmas day.

20. When Democrats attack other Democrats that are being attacked...
It's pretty ironic that the outrage over the attack on Dean by unknown Democrats is used as an excuse to attack Kerry and Gephart, even though there isn't any proof that those Democrats had anything to do with it.

23. Ohmygod. Thank you incapsulated.
How smelly is it that info on a supposed attack ad on one Dem was supposedly leaked prior to its airing with prominent denials from two other Dems?
