1. What is an avatar?
Is it some sort of playful undergarment?

2. Never.

on edit.....UNLESS, he chooses Wesley Kanne Clark as his running mate. THEN he will have my money, my time and an avatar.

2nd edit...:)....A Kerry avatar would ONLY EVER be in "addition to" my Wes Clark pics and graphics. Those are here to stay....forever. :loveya:

11. incognito, I want to second the part about Kerry choosing Clark as VP.
That would galvanize me out of just posting in support of Kerry. So far I haven't given a dime to Kerry's campaign. But I will bust open the piggy bank if Clark's on the ticket.

18. I hear ya, saywhat.
I haven't even been to Kerry's web site. I have NO DESIRE whatsoever to know anything about the man that I don't already know. I have not and will not donate to his campaign if he doesn't choose Clark as his VP. I'll vote for him, but only because I have no other choice. :(

9. Exactly. I'll always be in mourning for the Clark presidency dream.
He is the best thing that's ever happened to this country. I still hope he'll be part of the new adm., preferably as VP, then president in 2012.

5. No
If I have to get rid of Dean I will, though I hope I can keep him. If I do have to, I will keep the triangle. No Kerry avitar as long as Kerry favors an amendment banning me from marrying.

13. I THOUGHT that pic looked familiar.
A sub shop in my neighborhood called its corned beef on rye the "Bobby Sands," but those of us who remembered who that was gave the owner a SERIOUS hard time until he changed it, fittingly, to the "corned beef on rye."

I suppose it was funny in a REALLY dark way, but it's more like "when-you're-drunk-with-your-pals-and-trying-to-be-outrageous" funny, not even slightly funny to actually go through with.

29. Yikes! That was not funny of the sub shop.
Partly because in Ireland they have no idea of what corned beef is.

8. Nope. I'll get myself a Feingold avatar if I can.
If this nation were what it should be, Russ would be president. He is the greatest of the Democrats. Name me one person with better judgement than Russel Feingold.

17. Why bother?
Once our nominee is chosen, he's everyone's candidate, save for the anti-ABB crowd, about whom the less said the better. So what need for a candidate avatar?

I'm sticking with the Ohio flag, just to show that even though we've got a gay marriage ban, a racist baseball mascot and evolution in the schools, we're not ALL backwards jackasses here.

19. No but I may strap on my
Knee Pads.

It looks like we'll be needing them as we all beg mercy from camp Kerry.

learned what might be taken as offensive. :)

21. I like to have fun.
What's offensive to one person is thoughtful to another.

27. Hell no!
I'm keeping my Ella Fitzgerald avatar. I've been with her from the beginning and by God, I'm staying with until the end. I trust her instincts. I might even write in Ella in the primary. I want to send the Party a message. The Democratic Party will ignore dead female jazz singers at their peril!

28. I'll strap on a Kerry avatar when I know I'll vote for him...
Three months is long enough to be a fool. I was fooled in the primaries by Kerry, Dean, and even by Clark. Tomorrow my avatar will change to the person I finally vote for in the primary. If Kerry wants it to change again soon, he can start by winning my primary vote or by putting Max Cleland on the ticket.
