[slinkerwink]

The point of this is to show how ridiculous the threads of "I think I'm going have to support X" are.........

[pruner]

1. I think I'm going to join you in supporting Dr. Dean

Equal time laws apply. ;-)

5. I'm SHOCKED! SHOCKED, I tells ya!

There are plenty of pointless threads on DU, similar to what you're describing. There's zero content other than someone's anomymous vanity opinion. I really have to sit on my hands sometimes to keep from saying so in them, so as to refrain from making personal attacks on the originators of said threads.

[slinkerwink]

7. I agree.

[Sugarbleus]

6. I will commit to Dean also...

[SahaleArm]

8. All hail Howard the Great...

B-)

[SahaleArm]

14. You mean this guy?

Punchy :P

[Scott Lee]

9. After much thought and reflection, it's Dean for me.

[rucky]

10. Gee, Slink, This comes as a shock

I didn't think you liked Dean very much.

[slinkerwink]

16. oh, I do

</sarcasm> ;-)

[jmaier]

12. Okay,

all you folks are cracking me up. Do you realize how absolutely juvenile all this petty one upsmanship has become.

<pause>

waits for a chorus of "but they did it first."

[wtmusic]

15. Is not juvenile!! Is not!! Is not!!

:silly:

[slinkerwink]

17. want a pissing match?

[unfrigginreal]

18. You've worn me down Slinkerwink...

[slinkerwink]

21. yep, I'm soooo persistent

[w13rd0]

[slinkerwink]

[Padraig18]

[JVS]

23. Et tu, Brutus!

[Rowdyboy]

24. Dean?

I had you pegged as either a Liebermanite or Mosley-Brauner....

Oh, well, maybe you'll grow out of it! :evilgrin:

[Padraig18]

26. 40 lashes with a wet noodle for you, Rowdyboy!

If she didn't have a good sense of humor, she might have clawed your eyes out. :P

[Tom Rinaldo]

25. Dean, huh?

Catchy name. Can he play a musical instrument?

27. Not So Ridiculous If They Are Genuine

I like the threads where someone reveals their decision and the reasons for it. It is helpful to understand which way/direction undecided voters are leaning or going. It is also helpful to see what motivates people.

Many of us have decided who we support - but not everyone has. Many have posted on DU for along time - but not everyone has. It is actually nice to get a few other perspectives.

The only ridiculous thing is to slam people who come to the party later or who speak up later - as if they weren't entitled to speak because they weren't early.
