12. Help me with random thoughts/opinions - please
If Kerry is DLC....
If Edwards WAS DLC but is not being supported by the DLC .....
If Hillary is very DLC .....
If Obama is still a mystery for me, I can't say whether or not he is DLC ......

Might Kerry's endorsement mean an endorsement on behalf of the DLC (keep it in the family)?
The DLC might not care if they get either Clinton or Obama?
Because they believe Obama a) may be a little DLC, b) will work with the DLC, c) will listen to the DLC?

Just a thought .....

run with Kerry.

Logic tells me that the DLC selected Clinton, not Edwards, this time around. Or, perhaps, Edwards didn't pick the DLC?

I have this strong gut impression that the DLC was involved in the quick drop-out by Kerry in 2004 and I always feld that Edwards was sincere about fighting to get it straightened out.

I am not supporting Edwards at this time, I'm a Gore-Kucinich-Feingold kind of supporter, but I think he is as far away from the DLC as a candidate could be at this time. But, I know nothing, I just feel certain things. If I could know something, I might have already selected a second tier nominee.

I am very anti-war. I am very anti-DLC. We fight wars for corporations. We dream up and sustain a state of hate to benefit corporations.

20. Oh right 20 people switched their votes due to Kerry. Nice smear, Obama folks.
So there is 2 1/2 times more folks that switched their votes than were originally voting for Obama. Yup. That's it. All Obama needed was Kerry. :eyes:
