Well, wonder if there is anybody out there that at this point was waiting for Ted Kennedy to make up his august mind in order to decide whom to vote for? The way I see it Ted is worth one vote, his vote. I wonder if he so deluded that he thinks that Barack can win a national election? This is depressing in a sense. All this years waiting for the right situation to bring a Democrat into the White House, and the Dems are one the verge of nominating the one fellow that cannot win! George McGovern all over again. If this come to happen, I wonder who the wacko left is going to blame for their monumental mistake. Why can’t you fellows just be practical? You guys want to go in glorious defect in the name of principle. A feel good defeat, follow by eight years of bitching when the neocons get to name two more judges to the Supreme Court, and keep packing the Federal Circuit Courts with more right wing ideologues! A coalition of sauvignon wine liberals, college students without any social investment in the communities that they live at, and African Americans full of ethnic pride and anger! Great recipe for a November rout!

It pleases this republican to see Robert_V show his bigoted side.
"...African Americans full of ethnic pride and anger!"
This should serve notice to all African Americans that the demoncrats are clearly the party of prejudice and intolerance, of former KKK recruiter Sen. Robert C. Byrd (D-WVA), and of Robert_V!

Yes, wx insider, clearly Robert_V's ignorance is indicative of the 60,000,000+ Democrats in this nation. Using your logic, all RepublicOns are closeted homosexuals (Craig), child molesteors (Foley) & treasonous (Rove, Cheney & Bush outing Valerie Plame). While Robert_V is a random schmuck on a random message board, all of these people are elected officials of your party.

You don't really want to start down that road with me, Shaun. Using your argument concerning neocrat elected officials, there is Rep. William Jefferson (D-LA) (60K in cold cash!), Rep. Alan Mollohan (D-WVA) (ethic violations), Rep. Alcee Hastings (D-FL) (impeached crook), Rep. Gerry Studds (D-NY)(boy page sex), Pres. Bill Clinton (D-Dogpatch) (I did not have...).
This is YOUR party.
D's = The Caucus of Corruption

LOL! Actually, I would LOVE to go down this road with you. Really. A RepublicOn trying to accuse the Dems of corruption is rich. Try Tom DeLay (indicted), Duke Cunningham (convicted), Bob Ney (convicted), Scoter Libby (convicted), Curt Weldon (mistress choking), JACK ABRAMOFF!!!
Most of these are examples from 2005-7. Not from 10-30 years ago as most of your examples are. You and your ilk will never learn.

Bigoted? Ignorant schmuck? Boy, you guys take the price. Funny thing is that "wx insider" is buying Sean Hannity talking points about democrats, and Shaun is simply an idiot that cannot make a coherent argument. There is absolutely anything wrong with ethnic pride. It is common place in Americas’ voting patterns. Therefore you have the Kennedys carrying the Irish vote, or the great Chicago political machine of the 1950s and 1960s, fueled by eastern European ethnic voters. The problem is that we have become so adverse to studious discussion of issues that when it comes to African American or Hispanic ethnic pride we have turn it into a taboo subject that cannot be discussed. Oh well. And unless you guys have been under a rock in a deep cave, the subject of anger among African Americans about the Clinton's style of campaigning has been the talk of all the media pundits. Now what is so inflammatory about that? If you guys are so moronic that critic thinking is beyond your reach, then there is nothing that you contribute to a discussion.
