22. I'm sick of so-called "moderates who can win"!!
Why does everyone assume we have to "settle" for a "moderate"/DINO???:wtf:

Obama's just as bad as Hillary--both have times and issues where they are no better than apologists for our current right-wing junta.

Assuming the Riepold's don't hijack '06, the Democratic wing of the Democratic Party will be in a position to step up and stop acting like a kicked puppy.

What about John Edwards? He's from the south and isn't afraid to call the Repukes on their war on the middle class. Al's also got cred up the ying-yang, despite some "moderate" positions in his portfolio. (What with global warming and the destruction of the middle class, I bet he's re-thinking NAFTA et. al., big time.)

We need to start looking for the *best* candidate with the *best* plan to fix this poor country; not the face that polls best or offends the fewest focus group participants!
