What do we talk about after Kerry picks the VP?
It seams like 80% of the threads talk about "who should be VP" I know who i like and dislike, but I'm not going to keep beating that drum. I do know that from the day its announced till election night some people will bash and some will praise the pick.

At this point i don't care. I trust the Camping, I trust Kerry. Whoever he picks is ok by me, so can we please talk about something else. If I see "Reagan" or "VP" one more time I am going to turn off my computer till after the convention.

Thats my take on the "State of the DU"

2. this is why the campaign 2004 forum is still up
it was created for the primary fight and to separate it from the other discussion board since it was so repetitive and many didn't want to deal with it.

but the board is still active because of the vp question and some other things. i'm sure once the campaign is over we will probably get rid of the board. there is still the politics and campaigns forum where people can post things.

also as we get closer to the elections there will be more day by day polls of individual states so this forum would be a good place to put those so the general discussion can be left for other discussion.

4. you don't have to come to this board
many people avoided this board during the primary on purpose. they didn't want to get into the fights. and many avoided now if the don't want to discuss vp or day by day polls. i don't see what the problem is. just don't come here if you don't like what is being discussed. but there are others who still like this board.

5. After VP is picked and all the regrets and positives have
been posted...we can report media alerts and discuss what they have uttered etc. There will be plenty to talk about...especially if CLARK is the picked...anyone else...I'm not so sure. I know I will have lost a lot of enthusiasm and spend much less time here. That's probably "A Good Thing".

18. But, but, but ...my guy hasn't won yet!
I will be interested till someone wins. I'm just saying I will lose a lot of enthusiasm if Clark isn't chosen. My love for Clark made me get involved/work/donate in politics and I never was before. That enthusiasm will definitely wane if Clark is not on board. I will always be for Kerry...nothing will change that.

Good luck with your guy!

24. ummm...
Clark *is* my guy! that was in response too WI saying the VP talk is getting old. Her guy, Kerry, won! Of course, if Clark won the primary, I'd probably get a little bored too.

Here's to OUR guy!!! :toast:

28. Here is the top 5 list of DU topics after the VP is picked
Edited on Wed Jun-09-04 02:43 PM by wyldwolf
5. This is bullshit! ____________ should have been the VP pick because he/she would have brought the ___________ vote!

4. Oh, great! Another DLC pick! I hope they lose!

3. ______ is a fucking neocon and a PNAC enabler!

2. I've heard from reliable sources that ____________ once DJ'd a Skull and Bones frat party!

1. Yeeaaaaaaaaaa!

BONUS: I didn't get to vote for the pick so it isn't legitimate... what? We aren't allowed to vote for the VP pick? Since when?
