...and it means nothing when they speak as individuals. They must have the party standing with them before their message will be taken seriously by the media. Republicans have an 'echo chamber' where their message is repeated over and over. Kerry said things that you KNEW didn't have the support of the majority of Democrats. Dean said things that pissed off the corporate Dems and they helped the media smear him.
I get the impression that you don't understand how the party machinery works. The DLC and their corporate lobbyists chose Kerry. Democrats had no say in it expect for being fooled into believing they had to get behind him because HE was the one to beat Bush.
