Why are Al Sharpton, Dennis Kucinich and Lieberman still in the race?

They have no chance of winning. The fat lady has sung. They are taking up time and space at the debates and making them a cluttered mess.

1. Welllll,

Lieberman is just crazy, and thinks he's 2 places better than he is. If he wins 3rd in any state, he'll prolly declare himself the winner. :eyes:
Sharpton is dying fast, write-ins got more votes than him in NH.
Kucinich, with any luck, can keep the rest from going too far right. He doesn't have a chance to win, but I expect (and hope) him to stay in the public knowledge (even if a whole 2% of it), he's got the right idea, just a failed execution.

2. They have support.

Let the supporters have their chance to vote. This is not the U.S.S.R.
When the money is gone they will quit.

As for the "debates",who cares. I have never watched any.

It would be foolish to shut out the folks that support Al, DK and Joe.
They are Democrats you understand, we all count.

I am undecided here.

3. Last I saw, Sharpton was in 2nd in SC, that's good enough reason for me

He's actually got a chance at winning SC, not much of a chance, but he's giving Edwards/Clark a run for their money for 2nd place. It's going to be a photo finish there.
