Sadly, people will vote for whomever they want to and won’t let Duers have any say in it ...

Fuckers

1. There should be an elite to run things properly
because the people are obviously too stupid to vote correctly.

Wait...isn't that what George and the Boys were thinking in 2000, and now?

Hm. A fascism conundrum.

2. That's right, people are just to stupid for their own good. They should
come to DU and make their decisions based on childishness and immaturity instead of actually taking an unbiased look at the candidates and their histories.

They should also make their decisions based on single issue litmus tests.

Dumb fuckwits.

6. LOL...who the hell do you think is running things now?
What a joke, shove propaganda down their throats and then expect a misinformed public to make the right choice.

5. But it's a DLC inspired media conspiracy that has duped the voters
into selecting the worst possible candidate. And don't blame me when the Democrats lose in November.


Sorry, just pretending to be a really caring, counter-intuitive Democrat that knows we need to choose a primary loser in order to win the GE.

8. Nooooooo! If our nominee doesn't come from a "grass roots" movement...
...he can't be any good. At least that is what Ralph Reed keeps telling me. :crazy:

9. Are you saying general consensus at DU does not reflect the real world?

11. Relax, it'll be over in 6 days.
Kerry will be the nominee, Edwards will have spent he most money ever spent by someone running for the vice presidency and then we'll kick the shit outa chimp.
