2. What a great day!
See you don't have to go along with "the party" and compromise what you believe in.

Go get them Ned!

6. Why? Anyone who wants to run in a primary, should
A primary is about giving people a choice, and it just don't make sense to lock anyone out.

8. Tell that to Holy Joe and his supporters
It was reported earlier in the night that Joe was leaning on certain DTCs to vote as blocs, to try to deny Ned some votes

It is the best quote; Lieberman, you have no-one to blame but yourself

19. Lamont supporter??? That would be ME!!!
to: Bush* appeasing, Corporate Money Grubbing, LABOR neglecting DLC "Centrist" Dems:


Your base is MAD AS HELL.
We are WATCHING every move you take, every VOTE you make!
Neglect us at your peril!

(Joe, Please pass this message on to Hillary.)


"There are forces within the Democratic Party who want us to sound like kinder, gentler Republicans.
I want us to compete for that great mass of voters that want a party that will stand up for working Americans,
family farmers, and people who haven't felt the benefits of the economic upturn."--- Senator Paul Wellstone

In EVERY case, "Barriers to Trade" and "Restrictions on Corporations" were created to protect something valuable!

The Democratic Party is a BIG TENT, but there is NO ROOM for those
who advance the agenda of THE RICH (Corporate Owners) at the EXPENSE of LABOR and the POOR.


Mainstream polls consistently find that big majorities of Americans are not meek centrists, but overt, tub-thumping, FDR progressives who are seeking far more populist gumption and governmental action than any Democratic congressional leader or presidential contender has dared to imagine.
In recent polls by the Pew Research Group, the Opinion Research Corporation, the Wall Street Journal, and CBS News, the American majority has made clear how it feels.
Look at how the majority feels about some of the issues that you'd think would be gospel to a real Democratic party:

1. 65 percent say the government should guarantee health insurance for everyone -- even if it means raising taxes.

2. 86 percent favor raising the minimum wage (including 79 percent of selfdescribed "social conservatives").

3. 60 percent favor repealing either all of Bush's tax cuts or at least those cuts that went to the rich.

4. 66 percent would reduce the deficit not by cutting domestic spending but by reducing Pentagon spending or raising taxes.

5. 77 percent believe the country should do "whatever it takes" to protect the environment.

6. 87 percent think big oil corporations are gouging consumers, and 80 percent (including 76 percent of Republicans) would support a windfall profits tax on the oil giants if the revenues went for more research on alternative fuels.

7. 69 percent agree that corporate offshoring of jobs is bad for the U.S. economy (78 percent of "disaffected" voters think this), and only 22% believe offshoring is good because "it keeps costs down."

8. Over 65% of all Americans believe that the Invasion of Iraq was a mistake.



Centrism is DEAD!!!!!





Cue the music:

Good-bye Joe,
he gotta go,
me oh my oh

He gotta go-pole the pirogue
down the bayou

His had his run,
He come undone
me oh my oh

Son of a gun,
we’ll have big fun on the bayou
:party:
