The primaries are NOT over

as long as Vermin Love Supreme has not dropped out, there is still hope for the party.

It is still possible for Vermin Love Supreme to win the nomination if Kerry does not win on the first ballot.


So if Love Supreme does win the nomination, who will you vote for in the General Election?

Vermin Love Supreme:


or George W. Bush:

He also has a much more "presidential" vibe about him. A clear winner should it come to it!

I know he's highly desirable as a candidate, and a 'true progressive', but can even he pull it off? :P

possible for him to lose on the first ballot. After the first ballot, delegates can vote for whoever they wish. And I predict an unprecedented movement to Vermin Love Supreme.

Let's not forget the possibility that Kerry may also be hit by an asteroid. Plan for every contingency... ;)

Vermin Love Supreme will be ready to step in.

He could also be bitten by a black widow spider, or a coral snake...

Never discount the alien-abduction risk...

it is the doofus (VLS, although I know little about him, just judging the picture) vs the criminal Goober Bush*. No contest, I vote doofus lots of times.

I've never seen Kerry get this high of a percentage on any Bush :vs: Kerry DU poll.

A rabid monkey, like Bush, might push tax cuts that benefit his political and business cronies without regard to what it does to the economy overall. A rabid monkey might even talk like he has the right to appoint and dismiss leaders of sovereign states at will.

However, a rabid monkey would not regard the Bill of Rights as an inconvenience to be abrogated under the pretext of fighting an endless war against terrorism; a rabid monkey would not lie to drum up support for a colonial invasion, again under the pretext of fighting a an endless war against terrorism.

In fact, I doubt a rabid monkey would declare a war with vague, undefinable goals that can easily be used as a pretext to abrogate civil liberties and prosecute any dubious military action for which he gets an itch in ass.

I could be wrong, but I think a rabid monkey would be an improvement over Bush.

I am certain that Kerry, although not perfect, would be better than a rabid monkey. So I'll vote for Kerry in November.

about rabid monkeys. They have a very short life expectancy.

Yes, I do think he will be and I do think that it's very unlikely that another candidate could beat him at this point, but that doesn't make Kerry the nominee.

... the only remaining active candidates would need 108% of the remaining delegates to beat Kerry.

Yes, I also believe that a brokered convention is extremely unlikely, but it eliminates the 108% hurdle you mentioned.

My point is that we have this process for a reason. Kerry is the frontrunner and he has a very good chance of winning the nomination. Until he does, though, he's just the frontrunner.

605 delegates is not that many, frankly. My prediction is that after IL (3-16), Kerry has it sewn up. :shrug:

he needs 536. He picked up 69 superdelegates yesterday.

I still think 3-16 (IL) is V-Day for Kerry. :)

That still doesn't excuse those who tell others to "Get over it" because "Kerry is the nominee".

to unite behind Vermin Love Supreme in order to STOP KERRY!

What's innacurate about saying that while Kerry will most likely be the nominee, he hasn't yet fulfilled the requirements?

Or are some supporters so fanatical that they see every statement that isn't overwhelmingly flattering as an attack?

Kerry isn't the nominee, and I have shown exactly how and why Vermin Love Supreme can still step in a save our party.

Kerry could lose the first ballot, and Vermin Love Supreme could win the nomination on the second ballot.

This poll shows Vermin Love Supreme garnering a higher percentage of DU votes against Bush than Kerry ever has in a head to head matchup against Bush at DU.


Why do you insist on pretending I am disagreeing with you?

it is ridiculous to act as if Kerry is the nominee while Virgil Love Supreme is still running, and still has a chance of becoming the nominee.

the delagates, especially when having the delegates is what's required to be the nominee. Virgil has nothing to do with it (nor do Kucinich or Sharpton). This isn't about anybody but Kerry. He simply doesn't have the delegates yet.

I'm curious...you understand the process and you admit that Kerry doesn't have the delegates yet. I'd understand saying that Kerry's almost guatranteed the nomination or that the other candidates chances are slim. How do you justify calling him the "nominee" when you admit that he hasn't fulfilled the requirements?

He'll really shake up the system

Will you support Vermin Love Supreme against George W. Bush?

What about Vincent Hamm!?

Fercripessake, he received more votes than Sharpton in Dixville Notch!

VINCENT HAMM '04!

He needs volunteers for his Hammpaign...please visit him!

LOL

he's completely failed to criticize Bush over the Iraq war - he doesn't even mention it on his campaign website.

...and that explains positions 3 through 10! LOL

You might argue that it is just a question of style, but a Vermin Love Supreme presidency would really help folks to LIGHTEN UP!

Whereas a Hamm presidency would help folks to LIGHT UP!

Vermin Love Supreme/Hamm '04!

Lucian Jacob Wojciechowski

Just because I love the way Love Supreme/Wojciechowski rolls off the tongue.

...but I was always hoping for Hamm & Dean...

Maybe the two can team up for the Hamm & Dean's Souper Democratic Fundraiser?

LOL

what else does the party want of me?

As I've pointed out, he has not criticized Bush about Iraq, he doesn't even mention it on his website: http://www.h4p.org

A vote for Hamm is a wasted vote, the party will never unite behind him.

Vermin Love Supreme is the most unifying figure in the Democratic party today. A candidate about whom, the overwhelming majority of Democrats share the same opinion.

But all you sellouts wanted Hamm! :grr:
