4. are we sheep.
Edited on Mon Sep-22-03 11:30 PM by cyclezealot
I am not impressed.. Too many conflicts about what Clark stands for. What is more disappointing to me, a nation of sheep.. We know nothing about this person.. I am very skeptical.. I am not even content with Dean for offering solutions to our problems..
Just put on the ribbons and it does not matter what he stands for or what inconsistencies we find.. As far as I am concerned the DLC could not have its way with Liebermann so comes along some midnight suprise of god knows what. That is what I supsect.
Conservatives bash liberals for wondering about the intelligence of the American people. We go for such an unknown quantity-- well enough said.. Just put on a suit like Oliver North did and we are sold.
Watching Kucinich at rallies, being overwhelmed by his dynamism, connecting with people and real solutions for the people,and displaying an uncorruptible character. I will not settle for less. It is Kucinich or another who later proves his issues and character or I don't give a damn. I will not go out of my way for some questionable pig in a poke.
I want solutions or else it makes much less difference to me who wins. All I will do is just vote for those for which I have to hold my nose ,no more ; and those, I trust -I will work like hell.
As for those who bash Kucinich..One questioned whether he could carry Ohio for Senate.. Hilary now appears she can't win New York again. Hilary of the DLC in liberal New York.?
Don't dare question the abilities of a sterling character like DK.. Rural Ohio is not Cleveland and Ohio has produced some repugnant Republicans, with its delegation like 70% Republican.. Always has been.
DK is too valuable a speaker for the progressive Caucus and certainly more free to speak his mind than the snobbery of the Senate.
If he is not president- he should stay where he is and be a thorn to all those who betray the legacy of Paul Wellstone. Certainly, he has shown his leadership on battles over privatizing Social Security, bad trade deals, unnecessary wars. He is too much of a dynamo in the House's largest caucus- the progressive caucus.. He must stay there to challenge those who betray us, regardless of which party has the presidency..
When people possibly jump off the cliff for some unknown packaged quantity.. Really riles me up.Sorry.
I will listen to Clark-but a people so enamered and his positives automatically jump so high- just wait a minute. Know what you are doing..!
