7. Be interesting to see how they
extricate themselves from this one? Can only be good that they got caught with the mike on.

I don't care how Kucinich is polling..I like his voice in the damn debates.

11. Depends on how delicate you are....
If you don't mind being flamed and being called a traitor or Freeper or whatever else (the creativity never ends here) you can post whatever you want!

I personally try not to be too negative, because I may have to vote for them at some point


As for Hillary and Edwards not liking ot debate with those who aren't "serious" and are being "trivialized", I'm sure they feel they are very serious, and the only ones trivializing them are people like this. This party, let alone America, is too big for just one or even three voices at a time. You want to debate with one other person, STOP YOU BITCHING AND WIN THE PRIMARY.

12. Ahh, primary season.
You can try alerting on it, but I don't know it will do much good. It's probably going to get a whole lot worse before it's over.

15. Believe me, I've been there.
I couldn't believe some of the vile things that used to get posted about Wes Clark that didn't deleted. The mods seem to have a pretty high threshold for this sort of thing, and it gets extremely frustrating for any partisan of a particular candidate.

I'm just as glad that I don't have a strong preference this time around.
