Anymore I think they are actually rather infantile. Your issue isn't with the Democratic party so much as reality itself.
No you aren't dominated by a blind loyalty to the Democratic party, you are dominated by a blind loyalty to what you think and anyone who doesn't think what you think is now worthy of contempt.

All respect I had for your positions is now gone. I can handle ideology when there is an ounce of practicality inherent in that ideology..if there isn't...then it truly isn't an ideal but a warm enema....

I'm sorry you feel Kerry SHOULDN'T be the nominee...I personally feel they should serve ice water in hell. I also feel Kerry was the MOST qualified and BEST experienced nominee for the job, barring of course Bob Graham's failed run. We habe different litmus tests.


The primaries were NOT skillfully MANIPULATED to hand it off the Kerry, they were front loaded as a response to the fact that George Bush threatened a 200 million dollar re-select campaign and this was Mac Auliffe's response to THAT reality. While I think there were SOME mistakes in doing it that way because it leaves SO many states unenthused about their LATE primaries and thereby does little to KEEP people inspired...I can't fault it when acknowledging the FINANCIAL realities.

Here is the type of attitude I think is now most appropriate: People should be saying

And this confirms what I have told you in the past. You don't advocate freedom for people...in essence you favor a LEFTIST authoritarian dictatorship as opposed to a rightist one.
