I Haven't Decided If I Want Hillary In 08 Yet Or Not
Wanna know why?
Cause I haven't given it a moments worth of true thought

Wanna know why?
Cause 08 is 3 goddamn years away

What does that matter?
Because in November of 89 I never even heard of Bill Clinton yet, but come November of 92 I was praying for him to win.

So?
So I don't give a rat's fat ass about 08 right now. So much will happen between now and the time when it starts to matter to me who I give a fuck about.

Well what now?
Now? One Mission. 06. Yeah, 06. 06, that's what I give a fuck about.

Well what are you going to do?
I'M GONNA DO MY BEST TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERY FUCKING REPUB SENATOR, HOUSE REP, AND DEMOCRATIC DINO IS KICKED THE FUCK OUT AND REPLACED BY REAL AMERICAN DEMOCRATS, THAT'S WHAT!

Wanna Join Me? :)

3. Good point about Bill. Same thing can be said
about Carter. Peanut farmer who came outta nowhere.

Yup, 3 years is a lot of time, just like 11 months is a lot of time. Some people think we have 2006 wrapped up, but too much can happen between now and then.....like them dropping gas prices another 25c a gallon by then so they can claim gas is at its lowest in over a year. Lots of time to worry about. Lots of work ahead, too.

4. I've decided personally.
I don't want her in 08. No more family dynasties in the WH, I've had enough of that with Bush.

8. sorry.
Sometimes I just can't resist posting something contrary when I see everybody agreeing...I guess its just psychological, sometimes I need to remind myself that we can disagree and still get along. Maybe its a fear of over-controlling authories or something.

9. That's Why I Think You Missed The Point
Posting something contrary would've been something like "It's important to already be thinking about the candidate in 08 for the following reasons, regardless of 06 etc..."

12. That was done implicitly by talking about Hillary.
I guess I could be more explicit, and say exactly what I think:

I think it is important NOW to discuss core democratic party principles and what they are, and whether or not political actions/statements made by people like Lieberman or Clinton are really in line with those principles. I have no desire to cause division, but I think its useless to be inclusive to candidates who are democrat in name only, while putting through lots of republican ideas. I think its import to discuss this even before 2006, because I believe it could help us put the best people in in 2006.

there! ;)

10. I'm able to do both, thank you.
I can work for my 2008 candidate of choice (even if he hasn't technically declared) AND work for the Democratic senate candidate in my state in 2006.

Guess what else?

I can walk and chew gum, too! :evilgrin:

Sorry, but I don't see why this has to be an "either/or" situation.

11. But the purpose of some for being here
is for one reason and one reason only. To promote their candidate for 08.

Sad isn't it?
