Have all the candidates attacked each other in this campaign?

Poll question: Have all the candidates attacked each other in this campaign?

[jmaier]

1. No

Not if you exclude simply calling out policy differences. I'd limit the term attack to:

1) obvious misstatements
2) anything impugning character or judgment

[quaker bill]

2. Yes, with the possible exception of CMB

She seems to stay either a bit above or aside from the fray.

3. I don't remember any combat between Kucinich and Braun

I think those two campaigns are on good terms... probably sent each other cheese crocks for the holidays

[Padraig18]

5. LOL!

Probably. :P

[Monte Carlo]

4. Absolutely.

This is primary season. It's 'King of the Mountain' until Jan. 27.

6. I said no

I haven't heard CMB attack anyone

[Padraig18]

7. Neither have I. n/t

[Renew Deal]

8. It depends. Technically yes.

I mean they have all corrected eachother. Even CMB and Kucinich. They have not all attacked everyone of the others. For example DK has not attacked Sharpton. DK has attacked Dean. CMB has "attacked" someone but nothing major. So it depends.

10. Hence my inclusion of the 3rd choice.

:hi:

[Padraig18]

9. And Choice #3 is in a strong 2nd place!

:P

[Rowdyboy]

11. Personal attacks have certainly been far more frequent

from some candidates than from others. While I don't think this campaign has been particularly vicious (no more so than average), there's way too much negativity for me. I'm disappointed.

[Padraig18]

12. I'm disappointed, too, but...

... I'm frankly not a member of the 'sit there and take it' school of thought. Oh, well. :hi:

[Padraig18]

13. 84% 'yes' or 'it depends...' as of 2:40 p.m., CST

Why am I not surprised? :)

[Padraig18]

14. Kick

[Padraig18]

15. Kick

[Padraig18]

16. Evening shift kick.

[Padraig18]

17. Kick

[JohnKleeb]

18. ya they have

[Padraig18]

19. You are correct, John.

Is the reason for the singular focus on Gov. Dean (to the exclusion of the other candidates) the fact that he is the front runner, do you think? :shrug:
