Ignore them... they will go away
It's important we Democrats not contribute to the "Free Publicity for Ralph Nader Fund" by participating in a dogfight with Nader and his supporters. The more the feathers fly, the more the media will be on it. That means more air time for Ralph and less time for us.

Go Dems!

3. Why are they being allowed to spray they're poison here on this
board????

"If you wish to contribute to the defeat of the Democratic candidate for president, then you are welcome to use someone else's bandwidth on some other website. As the election season draws closer, we may expand this rule to include Democratic candidates for other political offices.

Democratic Underground may not be used for political organizing activity by supporters of any political party other than the Democratic party. Supporters of certain other political parties may use Democratic Underground for limited partisan activities in political races where there is no Democratic party candidate."

Trying to sell your justification for voting on a third party progressive ticket is paramount to organizing opposition to the Democratic Party Candidate.

9. It matters
Edited on Mon Feb-23-04 10:44 PM by Kimber Scott
I didn't mean to be redundant. Just didn't see your posts. Besides, this will need to be repeated, a lot!

Hopefully, we'll all be able to calm down over this Nader stuff and get him off the air.

On Edit: This is actually a reply to #3.

21. Oh no! I'm very glad to see your post
Don't take me the wrong way - we do need to get this message out. I was just feeling like the rules suddenly didn't seem to matter.

6. Nader is NOT part of the Democratic Party nomination process
just like BUSH is not part of the Democratic Party nomination process...

So we let Bush people in now to promote their candidate????

8. My point is
That Skinner isn't going to impose this rule until a Democratic nominee is chosen.

Until then, we just have to suffer the little Naderites.

11. Nader has some good things to say,
and they can't be said too often by too many. What I wonder is why he is not teamed up with Kucinich; or is he?

14. I'm a facist for making a suggestion?
Get a grip. Some people just have to follow the losing side. Other people let go and move on. ABB.
