Sycamore's Amazing Conclusion #4

When the campaign talk starts heating up later this year, the Democratic Party will champion itself as the party for individual freedoms, snatching it away from Republicans. Discuss.

I think they'll stay as close to the middle as possible. Yep, I'm cynical.

Thats why Al Sharpton is gonna take that bunch of pansies out to the woodshed and lay some lumber on 'em.

Wow. What are the Vegas odds on him pulling in even a single primary, and can I get some action on the "against" side?

I wouldn't vote for Sharpton. And if it matters, yes, I am black.

I voted for Nader in the last election. Mainly because I'm sure Gore and Bush were sharing the same damned brain.

Every vote for al sharpton in a democratic primary is a step closer to another 4 years of republican presidency.

I can't get with the Greens...too anti-business. I like money, and want to make lots of it. I can't have Ralphie fucking that plan up for me.

I like Al...I'm so proud of his settling-down, but he's still not ready for the White House. (Although, I don't know...if Dubya can be president, there's hope for anyone, right?)

I don't care for any of the Dem candidates. My God, what an embarrassment, with the exceptions of maybe Kerry and Edwards.

I want to see McCain make that indy run. I know he doesn't want to upset the GOP, but that would be a neat thing to see.

So unless Hillary or Big Ed run, it's settled...I'm voting for Mickey Mouse.

     Not just four more years of Republican presidency, four more years of Bush. C'mon I know that the gun rights are top on a lot of lists around here, but how long will they last, even under the Republicans once all our other rights are gone?
     Sorry... coming off the soap box...
     No wait, not done, the 'Dim'ocrats better do something right, they've really sucked of late. Al Sharpton certainly ain't gonna get it. They need to head for the middle all right, not just lip service either. They really screwed themselves in the mid-term election running as the "not-Republican party." They simply haven't offered anything.
     This would appear to be fertile times for third party's, but no, and I think we've gone over third parties enough around here that I don't need to go into it.
     Hmm, I better go before I say something that could be considered inflammatory.

     In conclussion: we are screwed.

Well, I'm voting Green again in the next election. Even though that will probably just allow the Republicans to have their say for the next four years, well, I figure it has to get worse before it gets better.

Face it, the Dummycrat faithful will vote for the prettiest boy on the list. They are already irrelevent. No high profile Dem, who is running, has consistently opposed spending at stupid levels, the war on rights, and military interventionism. Those are the things that, I beleive, can beat Bush. I'm gonna keep wasting my vote, hoping for the day the Repugnants are equally irrelevent.

For people that don't find me humorous, no I don't believe Al can win. He is, however, the only interesting personality running for the D nom.

Thanks for the link, griff. I placed my bet, and I got to vote for where Sharp should stand on any issue other than race ...

... guess they're still ironing out the kinks.

I wonder if he would paint the White House black, like George Clinton.

     I wouldn't count on any changes to the White House. I mean we had an Arkie in there and aluminum siding didn't go up. Maybe the Pres isn't allowed to redecorate the outside?

Of course the Park Service Police were careful to quash that story about Bills cousins showing up with the trailer carriage...
