It is time for us to come together

[Maine-ah]

and support the democratic party. If people keep saying they're going to walk away if their candidate does not become the nominee, we will surly lose the white house to the republicans again. Do we really want that to happen?

I will vote for the democratic party regardless of the nominee.

Time to drop the petty arguments and insults, it is tearing us apart.

1. Denying the democratic process

and the votes of many, is what will
do damage to the party. If Obama
cannot handle running against Hillary,
how will he ever stand running against
the GOP? :shrug:

3. exactly how is anyone denying the votes of many?

are you claiming there has been voter fraud of some sort?

either candidate will do a fine job against the GOP, as long as the democratic voters stick together and stop threatening to leave the party. We the voters are currently playing into the hands of the GOP if we continue to have this attitude.

We need to work against McCain, and support our candidates.

5. Not voter fraud but,

calling for Hillary to drop
out when Obama has not gotten
the needed numbers to be the
nominee is denying voters in
the primary to have their say.
Michigan and Florida have been
denied their votes, the voters
had nothing to do with the politcal
maneuverings that caused the DNC
to penalize their states.

I agree that more focus needs to
be directed at McCain but, until
the nominee is decided, the focus
remains on That. If McCain sits back,
and grows falsely confident and lets
his guard down....it will make him an
easier target than he already is.

6. so you think then that Obama is at fault for MI & FL

for not properly handling their primaries? Has Obama himself called for HRC to drop out? From what I have seen here, both HRC supporters and Obama supporters have suggested that the other drop out. It's coming from both sides, and both sides need to start working together. Instead of bashing the other candidate, and hurling insults, start giving the positives of your candidate, their experience, their votes ect....

7. Geez, where did I lay the blame on Obama?

I did not. The blame belongs largely
in Howard Dean and his ego. First he
threatened the states and the repukes
played him like a fiddle. Rather than
swallow his pride and admit that, Dean
would rather deny the votes. He is
afraid of seeming a flip-flopper I guess.

9. that's just how I interpreted your post

I thank you for your clarification.

2. Come Together

by John Lennon

Here come old flattop he come grooving up slowly
He got joo-joo eyeball he one holy roller
He got hair down to his knee
Got to be a joker he just do what he please

He wear no shoeshine he got toe-jam football
He got monkey finger he shoot coca-cola
He say "I know you, you know me"
One thing I can tell you is you got to be free
Come together right now over me

He bag production he got walrus gumboot
He got Ono sideboard he one spinal cracker
He got feet down below his knee
Hold you in his armchair you can feel his disease
Come together right now over me

He roller-coaster he got early warning
He got muddy water he one mojo filter
He say "One and one and one is three"
Got to be good-looking 'cause he's so hard to see
Come together right now over me

8. Not time to come together yet

Only when all the votes, including FLA and MI, and the remaining scheduled primaries are complete will we have a full picture. I predict Obama is going to look completely unviable by the end of the primaries.

10. .

as I understand it, maybe I have it wrong, but I thought Obama wasn't even on MI ballot?
