127. Has this thread changed anyone's mind as to who they now support?
Edited on Fri Mar-14-08 06:25 PM by bobthedrummer
Who they can, in good conscience, support?

Has this thread, which I'm now linking to in many GD-P threads, been helpful to DUer's that haven't participated in it yet?

I'd like to hear from you if that's the case.

I'm sure I'm not alone wondering if this has this been a helpful thread for anyone else?

I've learned from many of the responses so far.

I'm beyond anger and frustration, that's for sure.

I'm looking for organized effective political opposition to the criminals (past and present) in the coup installed administration of George Walker Bush/Richard Bruce Cheney-I'm looking for that effective opposition within the Democratic Party, not its internal power struggles.

I'd like to hear from people that can name a few of them. Senator Russ Feingold, one of my Senators is certainly one of them, so is Ohio's Rep. Dennis Kucinich. Unless I'm mistaken both of them are not associated with the DLC.

I haven't reached any definite conclusions about Senator Obama, yet. I will not be voting a straight Democratic ticket, assuming a GE is held in November and I certainly haven't ruled out voting for Senator Obama if he is the nominee, a lot would depend on his running mate.

Due to what I've learned researching the DLC before starting this thread a week ago I publicly state I will never vote for Hillary Clinton, or any ticket she is on, just as I will never vote for a Republican.

Third parties arising out of the Democratic Party, or independent candidates coming out of the Democratic Party would get my support and vote just as much as Senator Obama might-but not Hillary Clinton nor any other DLC apparatchik.

Anyone else's political thinking been changed by what we are discussing in this thread?
