Reply #94: The DLC decided all those primaries? [View All]

[QC]

I'm not a fan of the DLC either, and I'm not wild about Kerry, but let's not forget that when the question was put to the voters, the antiwar candidates lost big.

So it would seem that rank and file Democrats don't believe that the IWR is the defining issue of the election. I don't particularly like this, as one who supported Clark, but that's the game.

Did Al From force them to vote as they did? There's a tendency around here to act as though the DLC is far more powerful than it is, and attibuting the failures of so many of the campaigns is an excellent example. To hear some people talk, you would think that we are all just putty in Al From's hands.
