Come the Dem Convention next summer, all the candidates will

[joeybee12]

make nice, and it will be as if the primary campaign never happened! No mud was ever slung, no record was ever distorted, nobody ever said a harsh word against anyone else. That's the nature of politics...you live to fight another day. Will we do that here at GDP? Hmmm

1. No, we won't.

I thought that this board was supposed to be supportive of ALL Democrats, but the only thing I see is (with some exceptions) hatred toward one Democratic candidate in particular. Therefore, if my candidate is not nominated I will feel zero loyalty to the nominee.

2. Are you serious? Towards only one candidate?

I see what you refer as hatred to many candidates.

4. Why would that suprise you. Remember Lieberman?

It's the DLCers who are the ones who play "my way or the highway" more then any progressive or left-of-center moderate that I've ever met.


Hell- DLCers even went to work for the guy as a 3rd Party:

Lieberman's loyalty cops (AKA DLCers) talk up a good game when it comes to "vote DEM no matter what"- but I wont be forgetting Lieberman (I-3rd Party) anytime soon.

You can be sure that like with their boy Joe, many DLCers will pick up the ball & go home if Hill loses the nom. Wont lift a finger for the DEM- just like they did w/ Lamont.

Me? I can get along with most any DUer not linked to conservative 3rd parties.

3. Those of us who are DU/political junkies will, for the most part.

I expect some exploding heads, tombstones, and virtual bloodshed just before the serious "making nice" though. :)
