5. It's very pro-Michael Moore
All the other entries are quite negative.

What if one doesn't happen to like ol' Michael.

2. Your Shrum hit is inaccurate. He blew it when he said people wouldn't
Edited on Tue Feb-08-05 08:48 PM by blm
understand BCCI - He couldn't have been more wrong - but, he is very articulate.

I wish he had stuck to working on speeches and left the strategy to ME.

I also think your list is too incomplete to participate.

4. We need an other
I'm a Kerry democrat. Honest, caring, intelligent strong, yet quiet and shy and slightly geeky, Democrat.

I couldn't believe my progressive newspaper printed a pro-progressive and yet anti-Michael Moore piece. The comment was that he was using Republican tactics to put his point of view across, scaring us instead of trusting us to think for ourselves if he presented the facts in a less sensational way. The article further called him self-promotional, and took offense that he railed against the rich Democrats from the luxury of his Manhattan apartment. I had never seen the like from a progressive. I'm still processing that one.

10. I'm a
Wes Clark Democrat. My affiliation with the Republican Party is ancient history. I'm a liberal and proud of it. I fight. I yell. I think Bush is an intellectually lazy man who has no sense of foreign policy. I'm reasonably intelligent and I read a lot.

11. this entire list is skewed to garner a wanted result
I call myself a liberal pragmatist. I believe that ideology doesn't matter if you don't win.

18. Yeah that about sums me up
And probably 80% of the Democratic party, as well.

Interestingly enough, it wasn't a choice for this rather skewed quiz.

17. Why the nasty dig at Marion Barry?
He has his shortcomings, but you've decided to make him the face of corruption? I don't recall his downfall being anything more than human weakness, certainly not corruption.

24. I would say that I'm a Solution Democrat
I want answers, and I want ad hoc solutions to problems that affect people. I want what works and what works now. Solution-based, forward thinking, problem-solving people need to get involved in the party. When was the last time something was passed of note that our party championed? 1999?

28. Kerry/Kennedy Dem
Liberal feminist from MA living in L.A... Take your laws off my body and take your church out of the laws of this country!

John Kerry carried the Kennedy torch in this election, too bad some folks missed that.
