27. you people are too much
everything is Dean's fault to you. You don't open your eyes and see the big picture about how well the Democrats have done in many of the races across the country. Yet you single out two lost races in Kentucky, where the Dems had to put up with Gov. Patton's unpopularity and Mississippi, which is one of the most Republican states in the country and blame these defeats becuz the Dean vote didn't materialize. Then you say the point of this thread was not to insult Dean supporters into feeling that somehow we are responsible for losing despite the snide title of the thread.

Well, where are the Kerry voters? or Clark voters? or Gephardt? or Sharpton? or Edwards? did their voters materialize? Edwards and Clark supporters are always saying that we need them to win in the south, well, we lost Kentucky and Mississippi which are in the south and there presence running for president didn't seem to help.

The purpose of this entire thread was yet another excuse to jump on Dean and his supporters and play the blame game about "well where are all these new voters Dean is supposed to have energized"--had Democrats won Kentucky and Mississippi I don't think we would have been so graceless as to say, "Well, Dean did it" when he never even campaigned there. So instead of playing this blame game why not look at the overall positive results.
