1. None of the cadidates wanted to use the L word.
Mike Malloy was cracking on all of them for their weak response, even Kusinich.

3. I think my question is based
on why ABC would report that...almost to "balance" the story by badmouthing the Dems :shrug:

4. Maybe it's to get people to ask themselves
What are them Dems afraid of? ..uh uh oh yeah ANTHRAX

or maybe it's to get people to call and tell them not to be afriad .

I really don't know , I only hope the Dems will take this
one and run with it without fear .

7. Maybe they recognize that after 10 years of RNC/Corporate media beatings,
RNC dirty attacks, Anthrax, and unfortunate accidents, that Democrats have become reticent to get out front on the issues.

Maybe the media has had a change of heart and wants to see a political opposition to the Rethuglican Party. Or maybe they are trying to drive them out in the open by shaming them, so they can be finished off.

Or maybe, the Democrats strategy was always to allow these bastards enough rope to hang themselves.
