Reply #6: Every Dem candidate is qualified 1000 times more than the best GOP candidate. [View All]

Remember the original debates? The initial reactions of both Dems and the press was that the Dems had the best line up in years---a wealth of talent from which to choose. Somehow, we have been manipulated to believe that our candidates are all losers. We did not decide that on our own. Someone is telling us that, and we, being the same suckers for Freeper moles and MSM propaganda that we always are, let them take over the boards until it begins to look like we actually believe it.

I say "looks like", because I do not think that the heart and soul of DU believes it. I think that the heart and soul of DU is sitting back, watching the flame wars, hesitant to say "Hold on there. Isn't that rhetoric a little over the top" for fear of stifling constructive debate.

But what we have here is not constructive debate. We have deliberate provocative action, designed to keep us from uniting so that we can challenge the obstructionist Republicans in Congress, and challenge the Bush administration.

Face it---to read this board right now, you would think that Democrats blame Hillary and Hillary alone for Iraq and for the possible war in Iran. Not Bush/Cheney, not Congressional Republicans.

This is bizarro world. This is Through the Looking Glass. This the GOP's best hopes for 2008.
