Are all of our candidates arrogant or is it just me?
During that debate that whole bit about John Edwards saying he had an advantage against Bush because he grew up in a middle class family. Then later John Kerry said something about how his plan is better than Gephardt's and Dean's... the list goes on. Personally if I were in one of these debates I would never DIRECTLY say that I am better than another candidate. I would obviously defend what I am speaking and obviously believe it is better than the other candidates but I would not flat out say it. For example rather than "My plan is better than John Kerry's or Howard Dean's because..." I would say "My plan is best for America because...". I don't know maybe I am being to picky because it's just the way I am.

13. Ill take a Democrat

That is arrogant, has bad breath, major body odor, picks his nose, farts, and never cleans up after his dog poops in someone's yard over Bush.

2. I really don't like the
sniping between Kerry and Dean. They seem to be the two who proprigate more of the negativity then other candidates.

3. You should
go back and watch any debate with Gephardt or Lieberman. By far the most negative.

15. I think he's one of the most arrogant...but
I think they have to be. They are 'selling' themselves to the American public.

7. After the nominee is chosen, all the candidates will kiss, make up and
become friends again. I don't know if I can say that about my fellow DUers here being snippy with one another. That is why I am not wasting my time choosing a candidate now. Whomever wins the nomination is when they'll get my vote. As it stands now, I support all of them.
