1. Just so long as the Kerry people don't go: NYAHNYAHNYAH!
I can't stand that any more. It made me break my pledge to not criticize Kerry. It's so offensive.

7. Hey, let 'em gloat!
They earned it, I say. But fair is fair -- if he governs like a 'republican lite', we reserve the right to 'nyahnyahnyah' right back. ;)

21. OKAY - LET'S ALL VOTE TODAY
The primary process has worked for more than 200 years. I think its doing just fine. Please enlighten me about the secret weapon your candidate has to upset Senator Kerry in the primary elections from this day on. I spent 24 years in uniform defending the fucking constitution that allows you to be a dumbass. You are welcome. I'M WAITING FOR THE AWESOME SECRET PLAN OF YOUR CANDIDATE.

25. Well, that's today's meme.
Monday was special interests, tomorrow it changes to corporate media, Thursday is S&B, and Friday it's the DLC. Weekends are open smears. Then we begin the rotation again next Monday.

12. Um, technically this doesn't have to be a democratic process
this is a race for a nominee, not an office holder, it is party, not state business, so even tho it is (or strives to be) a democratic process, it actually doesn't have to be.

26. Are you accusing the Democratic Party of running nominations for
the Democratic challenger for POTUS? Say it isn't so.

Surely, you meant to use the DLC in your elitist snub of a majority of Democrats who have chosen John Kerry as their preference to represent them.

31. It means nothing...
Look, the front loaded primary was PLANNED. This was planned to happen.. and it was known it would happen. This is how it is.. write your leg and have them change the date to before the nominee is mathematically selected.

20. It is tyranny
It's undemocratic.

And the reason this isn't common knowledge is because if it were, the spineless dems would lose even MORE votes.

27. Total Bullshit.
What's undemocratic? People choosing one candidate over another?

No matter, your work here will be done soon enough.

19. Reality check folks!
Would any non Kerry supporter please give me a logical reason why they think their candidate will win the nomination based on the democratic process of the ballot box? You may not like Senator Kerry (he was not my first choice) however he has THE VOTES. My state's primary is next week (9 March). Please convince me to vote for your candidate because your candidate is the best person to remove the scum from the White House. Since my candidate has dropped out of the contest, my vote goes to Senator Kerry to take care of that task. We will be better off when that deed is done.

24. If only that were true
After their candidates have dropped out, I predict this forum will turn into a 24/7 Kerry bash.

30. No it won't.
After the primaries, DU will be enforcing the rules against bashing the nominee. Can't happen soon enough, IMHO.
