In our upcoming landslide, we have no need to slice and dice the electorate
Edited on Thu May-15-08 12:31 PM by Phoebe Loosinhouse
There are enough voters in enough states in enough disparate categories who are just thoroughly disgusted with the Republican regime,war and economy to take us to a historic victory.

A candidate who would posit otherwise,that only THEY appeal to a particular segment, is not the best choice to carry the torch, because they don't recognize the moment - a coalescing of EVERY voter whose needs have been ignored for the past eight years. At this time, you DO need a figure who elevates,inspires and brings together - not one whose campaign at this juncture is claiming superiority for being the preference of slices of the electorate. We just don't need that- on a practical level, a Party level, a national level or on a human level.

The pundits and the pollsters have a vested interest in pushing this garbage - it's what keeps them employed.

2. Thank you. You strike me as insightful and intelligent -
since you agree with me.;-)

I just woke up and thought - "Why are we even talking about this bogus bs?!"
