I'm watching Sharpton prove why he shouldn't be included in the debates

[MAlibdem]

He is muddling the messages of candidates who could actually win.

simplistic my ass, Two Americas is a rhetorical technique to bring up all the things sharpton is talking about.

[JohnnyFianna1]

1. At first he was funny but now he's just.....bleh n/t

[mdmc]

2. heat, kitchen

you know what to do.

[DuctapeFatwa]

3. It's hard to trump plain truth with bullshit, even for such talented

confectioners of rococo phrases as Kerry and Edwards.

[KoKo]

5. Ductape, are you being too subtle for words, here?

:D

[DuctapeFatwa]

6. LOL I am seldom accused of subtlety (nt)

[liberalcanuck]

4. The crowd seems to think he has great responses.

I for one think Sharpton nails the cultural issues and is a very important African American voice.

8. Welcome, jubug3 :)

9. I rescind my comment

As I watch. Very funny, very smart. But not presidential.

[beanball]

11. Presidential

Do you have to be anglo-saxon to look presidential,if not how does one have to look?

[rucky]

17. how's "presidential" been working out for ya?

[dflprincess]

7. I think Sharpton does a great job

of trying to get the others to clarify their responses. We need him and Kucinich raising more issues and points.

[orwell]

10. Sharp Dressed Men

Sharpton has been hilarious. I think all four of these guys are doing a great job.

Feel the love.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

12. I'm watching him and Kucinich prove why they should

They are the BEST way to assure others their vote and their voice will be heard at the convention.

[orwell]

13. Yup

I agree nsma. I think Sharpton was right on the money when he stated this.

O

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

14. He's been on the mark on every comment tonight

[The Lone Liberal]

15. Al talks to the people

He is not interested in rhetoric, he is interested in saying something that will become a battle cry, be repeated. That is one thing that the right has bested us on, "death tax" "integrity" one word that is repeated and repeated, well Al, gave us a couple tonight. Don’t kid yourself, Sharpton knows he cannot win, he is there for the Democrats. We had best get down off our intellectual high horses and recognize that it is going to take the people to beat the power this time.

[mdmc]

16. Without Al and Kucinich

we would NEED Nader to address issues.
Way to go progressives!
Lets unseat the pResident!

[WI_DEM]

18. good now the Sharpton people, defenders on DU

can be disaffected with Kerry supporters too--like Edwards, Dean, and DK people. Yes exclude Sharpton from the debates--quiet all dissent and people who don't fall into line.

[edzontar]

19. Go Al!!! Don't let the Kerry brain police shut you down.

nt.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

20. Aw, gee, are Al and Dennis making your favorite candidate look

wishy-washy?
