Is the 2004 election over before any possible recounts are complete?

If not, then I believe it's reasonable to expect that the Message Board Rules for the 2004 election still apply, no?

"Negative attacks are an unavoidable part of any political campaign, and therefore they are permitted against any Democratic presidential candidate. However, once the Democratic party officially nominates its candidate for president, then the time for fighting is over and the negative attacks against candidates must stop. The administrators of this website do not wish for our message board to be used as a platform to attack and tear down the only progressive on the planet with any hope of defeating George W. Bush."

Just curious, what with some of the various slams I've heard against John Kerry here.

organ-eye-zation!
:party:

:toast: :hi:

but take it somewhere else...

Anyone who hasn't read 'em ought to. We do actually place some limits on free speech here, and I for one welcome those limitations.
"Freeper talk" provokes all kinds of negative reactions here for instance, ranging from nausea to murderous rages. Who needs it?

Welcome to DU, BlueDog2u! :hi:

If you give a trusted friend a diamond necklace to be repaired, and he gives it to a passer-by who demands it, claiming it's his, what do you think of that "friend"?

We GAVE Kerry our trust! Our vote! Our FUTURE! Worth MUCH more than a silly diamond necklace or gold tiara... and he GAVE IT AWAY!

Never fought for it! Never even *whimpered*

Clinton, too! The ones who HAVE voices are silent. The ones who have power are motionless.

When will you GET IT that we have been ASS RAPED?!!


So NO I'm NOT going to be polite to My so-called "friend" when he comes back without My damned necklace and shrugs, saying "Truuuuuust meeeee!"

FUCK that! I give Kerry EXACTLY as much "support" as he's given Me!

Lady Sonelle

now if he'd like to retract his concession, I'll certainly refrain from any criticism until the issue is finally resolved . . . absent that, he's fair game, imo . . .
