Now that Clinton has come out supporting Kerry, we better all fall in line
On CNN/Blitzer, they did a segment on Clinton's support for Kerry and his "no love lost" with Dean who has dissed the DLC of which Clinton was one of the founders.

On Crossfire, the Dem "Consultant" was urging Dean to drop out now saying that he had a year and lots of money and couldn't win in Iowa or NH....so it means he's not "electable." Conclusion was that tossing Trippi and delaying staff payments was a disaster for his campaign.

So folks.....that it! Fold your DLC/DNC opposition tents and "Fall in Line" behind the Banner! ABB.....ABB.....ABB......ABB...

In my sleep....ABB!

It's done! Two little states population voted and the Dems have their candidate.

Kerry/Edwards.......buy your bumper stickers now......although many of you already have them. :D

1. Clinton knows how to win.
The campaign internal state polls have already predicted next week's results. Why else would Dean announce that he doesn't have to win any primaries soon in order to stay in the race?

I repeat: Clinton knows how to win... and how to beat a bush.

Run as a Southerner.

Better still if you have a third party candidate who siphons votes from the Republican party.

4. Bitter, or what?
I like Howard Dean. I hope he continues. But geez, this is the process. And yes, I am an ABB type, for damned good reasons. Why the bitterness?

5. Clinton said he is staying out of it for now
he hasn't endorsed anyone or implied tacit support besides to Clark.

6. Clinton said he liked all the candidates
He was asked a specific question about Kerry being liberal and answered it. That's all.

And the consultant pointed out the numerous problems with Dean's campaign and he's right. And Dean hasn't changed a bit. He continues to lash out and offers nothing to appeal to all of America and all of America votes for the President.

10. Gore, Bradley, Carter
It was wonderful when they came out in support of Dean. Even tried to spin a visit with Carter into an endorsement. We were supposed to all fold it up before a vote had even been cast. Wish I could turn computer monitors into mirrors.

11. Clinton isn't supporting Kerry, yet.
Edited on Thu Jan-29-04 05:20 PM by Feanorcurufinwe
And Blitzer didn't say or imply he was either.

13. Funny the DLC is calling for Dean who placed 2nd and 3rd in the 2
primaries to drop out...but no calls for the other 5 LOSERS to drop out.

I wonder why that is? Shouldn't they be asking Sharpton to drop out since he can hurt all the rest in the south because he will ciphon off the black vote? Or how about Lieberman? He's writing Smirk's commercials with his attacks.

It is living proof that they don't have a clue what Americans want in a candidate.

18. CLINTON HASN'T ENDORSED ANYONE!
Just trying to stop this now.

He just answered a question on Kerry in a positive fashion.

Helpful, but not an endorsement.

Kerry. Please edit it.
