1. You forgot one..."The Corndale Shopper"

[ccpup]

3. I thought newspaper endorsements

didn't matter? :shrug:

[maddiejoan]

4. Only when they endorse Hillary

Der.

[ccpup]

5. oh yeah

forgot about that. Thanks!

[ClarkUSA]

7. I'd say Obama's newspaper endorsements matter as much as Hillary's

Although I doubt any voter will vote for a candidate just because of a newspaper endorsement, it certainly doesn't hurt.

[MNDemNY]

6. But to get the nod from the good old corndale Shopper...

Now that is a coup!

[JackORoses]

10. is this the best you got? c'mon you owe more of an effort to your Queen

how do you really really feel about Obama?

[MNDemNY]

11. I really don't understand your contempt for Dennis Kucinich.

Do you use the term "Queen" in the sense that I think you do? That's not very nice.

[ClarkUSA]

12. For someone who allegedly supports Kucinich, you spend a lot of time knocking Obama

I'm surprised you didn't work in a nasty reference to his cocaine use the way you've done on at least two other GDP Obama threads.

[MNDemNY]

13. Point?

[ClarkUSA]

15. You seem to only defend Hillary and only attack Obama.

Interesting.

[MNDemNY]

16. Defend Hillary? not so much.

Attack BHO? I prefer to say I am pointing out problems I have with him. One of the largest is his campaign's constant cry of Hillary attacks!. It's such a crock. Fuck 'em both .we need a Democrat.

17. Does this poster really claim to support DK? LOL!

I never knew...probably because the poster rarely (if ever) actually promotes him here.

Nonetheless...I don't think I'll shift him/her from the "nothin' but an Obama basher" DUer category.

[MNDemNY]

18. I guess you never asked.

Kucinich's positions, VOTES, and integrity are so superior to those of the 2 top corporate candidates, that it seems almost unfair to point them out. So fight over who's worse, the inexperienced,pandering homophobe, or the Experienced sweetheart of the insurance industry, I'll have fun on the sidelines and place my primary vote for a real Democrat.

[ClarkUSA]

19. Uh huh... just wanted people to know.

:rofl:

After your and my remarks, she/he has made token attempts to appear to be a Kucinich fan and anti-Hillary in a very faint way. So predictable. :eyes:

[William769]

2. How many State legislatures does he have?

[MNDemNY]

14. couldn't be more than 1, but i don't think any state legisltures have endorsed.

Is that ever done? Just askin'.

8. Gee no wonder newspapers in Iowa are going broke the

damn dummys don't know their butt from a hole in the ground.

9. Good for Obama.
