Welcome to DU

[oasis]

3. Checking in.

[vi5]

4. Not a Kerry supporter per se....

But not too far off. I've always liked JK and was sad when it appeared his campaign was losing steam. I like seeing him back on an upward trajectory.

I could very easily get behind a JK candidacy.

[maddezmom]

7. me, too.

But, Wes is my number 1 :)

[Feanorcurufinwe]

12. Oh we've been through some hard times but

people are finally listening to John, and when they do they hear a leader!

Anyone who hasn't seen the "Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) Chili Feed in Claremont, NH" video on CSPAN, go to http://www.cspan.org/videoarchives.asp?CatCodePairs=, and watch it, you will be inspired and encouraged!

[agingdem]

13. Hell yes...

I'm for Kerry.

[jenk]

14. right here, he's my #2

[WiseMen]

15. Congrats all. Let's keep rallying fellow Dems to join this great crusade

to take back our country.

[cindyw]

16. I'm here, but don't expect too many to check in.

Many are in NH putting their money where their mouths are. The stories I have heard are great though.

[curse10]

17. I was supposed to go this weekend but I have a nasty fever

and I'm really sick. I'm really bummed :-(

[XanaDUer]

Great to hear that!

Good.

19. My Kerry checks are in and

There will be more to go for John Kerry. Money where my mouth is.

[vi5]

23. Now that you mention that...

I have noticed and been shocked at the abundance of anti-Kerry threads but not a lot of the usual Kerry supporters checking in and defending.

If it is true then good for them.

[La_Serpiente]

55. A majority of them

are petty attacks. Why should we have to legitimize their attack with a response?

If it was over a policy question, then yeah, it would be wise to respond.

[nightperson]

20. Sigh.

Do you really think this will fool anyone? Everyone knows that we've all known each other for a loooooong time due to our hardcore Skull and Bones connections, and, of course, we know more than enough about the other DU members through their implanted tracking chips. I suppose it is wise to go through the motions, though, to insure our grip on the controlled masses. To all of you non-supporters, remember: Obey.

[Feanorcurufinwe]

28. lol!

[mydawgmax]

21. Go Kerry!

eom

[HazMat]

22. here

Tee hee. This whole Kerry resurgence must be eating up most of the folks over here at DeanUnderground... I love it.

[quinnox]

24. Present

Amused at all the Kerry attack threads being generated lately. LoL, seems like old times.

Guess it goes with the territory of winning.

[emulatorloo]

25. a big hello from Iowa

too bad I'm off of DU for the rest of the day. . .but maybe that's a good thing.

[poskonig]

26. Hello from Illinois.

I'm a recent convert to Team Kerry.

[IADEMO2004]

27. Here

[ModerateMiddle]

29. Two Kerry supporters in Colorado

checking in. Not that our April or May or whatever caucuses will matter to anyone.

But yeah for the Kerry surge!

[obietiger]

30. I've joined up

but I still like all of them

[kstewart33]

31. Count me in--I've switched to Kerry

I sent my first $$$ to his website yesterday. Let's keep supporting Kerry on this site. A few months ago, I thought that Dean had real potential, but there has simply been too many mistakes, gaffes, retractions, etc.

My top priority is to beat Bush, but I think that will be extremely difficult. So for me, the key question is how do we stem any losses in the Senate? For me, if we lose and lose with Kerry, we won't lose big and lose more seats in the Senate.

If we lose with Dean, katy bar the door. It will be a defeat of staggering magnitude with terrible costs. Because if the Repubs get 60 seats in the Senate, it's all over.

[HazMat]

42. Welcome, and I agree

Dean would lose at least 40 states and bring down the party. Thankfully Iowans ignored the media coronation of Dean and decided to not only 'send a message, but to send a president'. When push came to shove Iowans picked Kerry because he is our best chance to beat Bush.

[sandnsea]

32. still here

Where would I go? :-)

[kstewart33]

35. Showing my ignorance here, but a question

Where/how can I get a Kerry icon that several posters here have?

[curse10]

37. Go to the lobby

click options, then edit your profile. You can chose from a plethora of avatars there :-)

[TheDonkey]

33. Let's go JK!

Kerry's on my list of the 2-3 I'd like to see go up against bush and WIN.

[zulchzulu]

34. But of course!

I've been with JK since last July.

[adadem]

36. I'm with JK n/t

[Zomby Woof]

38. A DKer who can get behind Kerry here

:hi:

[curse10]

41. Thanks ZW!

I know he's far from perfect and far from your first choice, so it means a lot!

[Nicholas_J]

48. I tell ya

I would be a Kucinich supporter if I thought he had a snowballs chance. I know that Nader has stated that Kucinich is the candidate who is most like him, and Kerry is the candidate who is most like him who is electable.

Older folks like me vote strategically, not on issue, as to be honest, they pretty much have the same issues.

Kucinich is a visionary, and presents the ideology that the U.S. will follow in 30 to 50 years. He is correct, His vision of the futire the most hopeful, but unattainable in America today.

While Dean talks the party line, his history is backwards lokking, and his ideas and platform most closely resmeble the ideals of Nelson Rockerfeller, whom Vermont Political Scienctistshave compared Dean to.

There is absoltely nothing new about Deans ideas, they closely mirror the pre-neo-conservative, moderate Republicans that Deans father supported, and espoused by Deans closest advisor, Harlan Sylvester. Dean is appealing to the liberals which I find amusing, as he has absolutely the most vconservative record of all the candidates, while Kerry is solidly holding the center, which is the strongest group in New Hampshire, which is with Maine, the most conservative of the New England States, sort of like Florida with snow days.

[aldian159]

39. Here

n/t

[OneBlueSky]

40. I'm a Kerry kinda guy . . .

like all the candidates, he has his flaws, but I think he'll put up the best fight against Bush . . . particularly if he chooses his VP wisely . . . I'm thinking either Clark or Edwards would help the ticket the most . . . jmho . . .

[flpoljunkie]

43. Checking in from sunny Florida...

"We're coming. You're going. Don't let the door hit you on the way out." - John Kerry to the special interests who run the Bush Whitehouse.

[Baclava]

47. Gulf Coast bump...

Color me Kerry, too...

[paulk]

44. still here

:dem:

:toast:

[Nicholas_J]

45. Here we are:

Polls that are including undeclared voters (independents) are the polls that right now have Kerry with commanding leads.

ARG's latest (they include independents)Has Kerry at 38 percent and Dean at 16 percent with an MoE of 4 percent, which as Kerry leading Dean at 5 times the MoE.

WMUR polls are down, but they are already stating that Kerry is the likely winner in N.H.

[JohnKleeb]

46. Right here dude

:hi:
He was my number 2 for a while now him and DK are number 1, love those K's, and my new number 2 is Edwards. Real happy about the LCV endorsement but distressed about how things have gotten here but am not suprised.

[wheresthemind]

59. I'm with my fellow teenager on this one!

:)

[JohnKleeb]

67. Its comrade :)

All is good though. I think Kerry would do quite well with young voters. Hes a good guy, overall very appealing to me.

It's a nice day here in CA; lots of Kerry people are either phone banking for New Hampshire or tabling outside, pulling in lots of new volunteers.

[jpgray]

58. Hello, from one of the old guard Kerry fans

Kudos to those who stuck it out in the trenches during my hiatus. :scared:

Kerry is still tied in my mind with Dean and Kucinich.

[frank frankly]

60. first time for me on the roll call

for Kerry, I should say

I am happy to be here now.

:hi:

[Shanty Oilish]

61. Kick me, I'm a Kerry supporter

*sniff* It's not easy being a Kerry supporter these days.

[JohnKleeb]

62. Its ok Caroline

Dont let it get to you.

[UTUSN]

63. Don't Forget about Me, Yo, Too

[Octafish]

64. Go John Kerry!

Yeeargh!

[frank frankly]

65. a kick for the sage, octafish

:kick:

[blm]

71. yep...Octafish(Oblomov) is the real deal.

.

[foo_bar]

66. count me in

after he beat (the popular, photogenic, Governor) Bill Weld I knew Kerry was a closer, as they say in the horse racing biz. I met him once to receive a small business award; he was sharp, funny, philosophical, and prone to self-examination. He's positively introverted by political standards, and that's what America needs most: a good hard look at itself, not reflexive blame of everyone and everything else, as we see every day from the Bush administration and the Dean campaign.

[phirili]

68. Here

and happy.
