The Doomsayers(that would include me) were right again

[Hydra]

I just got to work after hearing of Edwards withdrawal from the race.

As predicted, we are being given the choice of Corp. approved candidate A or B. In one respect, I am utterly disappointed. Kucinich and Edwards were not perfect candidates for me, but at least some sort of bone was being thrown to us. Being stripped of even the semblance of what our party should stand for, I find myself sick to my stomach.

On the other hand, for those concerned about our future, I have a feeling the message was heard loud and clear- "Your input is not desired. Go back to work like good little slaves."

Our system is broken beyond repair. This was clear before, but each day makes it more plain, as the kabuki is phased out in favor of terror, hopelessness and subjugation.

It hardly seems worth it to vote now, as the totals are likely already computed and waiting at CNN for announcement. I'll still do it, though, because the people who think it makes a difference need to see that it doesn't. No excuses like Nader to cover the blatant election fraud.

The problem with being a doomsayer is that the people who didn't listen never own up to it.

So be it- on to Iran, Venezuela and anyone else who has oil, gold or water to steal.

Long live the Emperor, for he is great! :sarcasm:

1. How would you feel about Bloomberg joining the race?

I was an Edwards supported who is also discouraged that he dropped out of the race.

2. As a former NYCer, Bloomberg is a union-busting nightmare.

He's no replacement for Edwards or DK.

4. Thanks, Didnt know much about Bloomberg

I guess Im not voting in 08. I cant support Obama or Clinton

6. Yeah, Bloomberg is a moderate Republican. (He was a Republican in NY until this year)

He's good on the environment, LGBT, abortion but horrible on global capital--which is the lion's share of the problem.

7. He's also an enemy of the First Amendment.

Google "Bloomberg Republican Convention 2004" and read about how he tried to muzzle the protesters. And how he authorized surveillance of protest groups for a year before the convention. And how he allowed protesters to be injured and kept in filthy holding pens, sending many to the hospital. The thought of him in the race makes this New Yorker want to hurl.

3. No one else will be joining

which is why I'm so discouraged.

Gore
Kucinich
Edwards

RIP

5. Yep, I totally agree. If only all of us who thought so could send a message to the M$M
