What is with all the animosity?

Calm down people. I check this forum out and I see a bunch of threads locked that were flame wars.

Kerry is doing fine, and he is sitting in a good position on chances to win the election.

And so what if there is some grumbling by a few about Kerry, not everyone is going to be happy about his being the nominee.

Die!!

:mad: :mad: :mad:



Just Kiddin'. :evilgrin:

They just locked all the "Dump Whoever" threads, so it looks worse than it really is.

:hi:

GRRRRRRR!!!!! Kerry smells like butt. Nadar Rules!

He He

:headbang:

criticism of his campaign, even when every printed source one can find backs it up, with not liking Kerry. Bush is tanking through no doing of anyone but Bush, and Kerry has plateued.

Kerry is our candidate and so I'm going to vote for him. I would have voted for Clark or Edwards or Sharpton or maybe even Lieberman, too, because I am a Democrat.
I notice there's a great big world surrounding all four sides of this here computer. DU is great, but it's a cyberworld and I try to keep it in that context.
Here in Saginaw (as always, the Center of the Universe), I have a party to get ready for (see below) and there's still grass to cut and floors to mop and cats to feed. There's always bills to pay and someone has to do the grocery shopping. Friends come by and there's stuff on PBS I want to see and -- goodness -- I surely do seem to find lots of activities that have little to do with politics.
It was a lot of fun to debate possible nominees here in January and February (I supported Clark at the time), but the primaries are effectively over, Kerry's our boy and that's that.
Frankly, I really don't pay much thought to Kerry's particular positions. I know the positions of his alternative are far worse. All I'm waiting for now is the November election so I can cast my vote for the Dem. I know that's simplistic and naive and neanderthalic and that's cool by me. That's an advantage of being a fifth-generation Democrat. I don't HAVE to think deep thoughts about it.

It is now 38 days, 21 hours and 21 minutes to FUNDAY. Hope to see everyone there.

REFRESHING!!!

thanks.... :kick:

You know you're one of the DUers I'd really love to meet at FUNDAY. I'm hoping to get at least a dozen here (out of a total expected crowd of 80 to 100 over twelve hours).
We're going to have a real Republican (small-business kind, not neo-con kind) in charge of the food. And, of course, Andy the Right Wing Republican will be here for all of DU's argumentational needs.

Make your reservations now. It is just 38 days, 19 hours and eight minutes until FUNDAY.
