Dem. Candidates Blast Republicans Over California

PHILADELPHIA (Reuters)

Democratic presidential candidates blasted California's recall campaign against Gov. Gray Davis on Monday, calling it part of a larger Republican assault on the U.S. electoral process.

At a political forum near the Liberty Bell, seven of the nine Democrats vying for the right to oppose President Bush in 2004 said California was being swept by the same right-wing tactics used against Democrats in Florida and Texas and during the impeachment of former President Clinton.

"This is an attack on the institutions of our government. That's what Republicans do," U.S. Rep. Dick Gephardt of Missouri told hundreds of union leaders at Philadelphia's National Constitution Center. -

"We may disagree, the seven of us here tonight, on a lot of things. But we don't disagree on this one," said Sen. Joseph Lieberman of Connecticut, Gore's 2000 running mate.

Some compared the California recall to the wrangling between Republicans and Democrats in Texas over an aggressive Republican redistricting plan.

"I think it insults democracy in this country. It's wrong," said Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts, who called on California voters to retain Davis.

"They should overwhelmingly reject this right-wing, ideological interference in the electoral process of the United States of America," he added. -

You guys always are one step toooooo late!!!

do need a weatherman to tell them which way the wind blows.they seem concerned that any judgement may be wrong so they say nothing untill the damage to this country is so outrageous they are forced to say something. jesus it seems most people on the net are a week ahead of of these guys......

They don't speak out as much as I'd like, but better that they're saying something about the attempted coup in California.

This article refers to tonight's event. I know for a fact that some of them made statements before that (DK). Why can't I ever hear a "Halleluja!" when something good happens here?

Or so one would think.

the team steps up to put out any forward movement that might develop.
Things that make ya go hmmmmmmmmm.

but if they are condemning the actual recall itself, then hell yes that's good news!

Will any one except CSPAN show it? well...

:shrug:

little me! This is time to stand togther, all moral Americans, The Moral Majority (the Democrats). It's do or die. If we can't make a stand now our country will die. If we can't make a stand now it's over for the Democrats in all aspects of politics and business. All Democrats wil eventually lose their seats, little at a time, if we don't stand together.

Their no hope. The Bush Crime Family wil continue stacking the judicial system with undercover cirme agents like Thomas, Scalia, Rehnquist all the way down to the smallest post.

The Dems. need to start attacking the media too. The media is the real corruption in our country.

Why can the Repukes falsely attack the media as being liberal with success but Dems don't attempt to actually tell the truth about the media?

The media is completely controlled by GOP board members.

Go after the media Dems you've got nothing to lose!
