1. Can't one be loyal to both?

5. My thoughts EXACTLY... which is why I didn't vote in the poll..

2. Loyalty ? ...

But honestly: this is a false dilemma ....

4. With the Dems, it's case by case as to whether they are trustworthy
Dean is a case I lean more toward trusting. If it was Biden, Lieberman, or even one of my senators, Dianne Fienstein, I wouldn't want my life to depend on them defending me.

6. Yes, I voted Dean because I believe he is the Dem Party!
Many of the long time party members in DC aren't acting like Dems at all! I'm tired of being a doormat, and I want them all to fight fire with fire like Dean is!

I have always been a Dem, but theDeans of the Party are the ones I support, and there sure aren't many of them!

8. Dean is HEAD OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY
It had better be one and the damn same.

10. Dean was chosen for his grass roots fundraising ability.
And I support his shift away from corporate donors. In that way, he will help reshape the party. Hell, he already had huge impact with hid Presidential campaign. The remarks he made about the Repuclican party are straight out of their playbook. He's taking it back to the fascists, and I love it.

16. You don't see anything wrong
with asking Democrats to choose between the party and its chairman?

Sorry, it's sick.

But sorry for the "you guys," too. I guess I know what I meant, but I shouldn't have generalized.

13. Dean is the only reason I didn't leave this party in 2003
And people like Biden, Richardson, Hillary and their PNAC masters are the reason why I was ready to leave.

If those worthless pieces of shit succeed in fucking Dean over AGAIN, I will no longer support the "Democratic" party.

14. I'm just curious
Why did you pick "or" instead of "and"?
