Paging Draft_Mario_Cuomo...

[A-Schwarzenegger]

Don't tell me he left the building.

[AlCzervik]

1. Draft's not here man.

apparently "He disrupted poorly"

[A-Schwarzenegger]

5. I can't believe it, can I?

There must be an error in the paperwork, a snafu of some variety.

[AlCzervik]

7. i don't remember which candidate he liked and who he hated.

not that it really matters to me, i'm sure many other posters here will be self tomb stoning once primary season is over---just like last time.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

9. Yes. Once I thought of calling myself Draft_Harry_Truman.

And that was before the internets.

Well, I hope wherever DMC is these days, he is enjoying himself
every bit as much as I enjoyed him.

[Mythsaje]

10. He supported Edwards and loathed Clinton, I believe.

He was a radical poster. Sorry to see him go.

[Tellurian]

2. The wah-wah supporters had him banned...

is what was relayed to me...

[TwilightGardener]

6. What was the fatal thread? He and I got into some pretty heated

discussions, but I respected his terrier-like tenacity.

[Nutmegger]

14. I'm not sure, but I would like to know what happened.

I hope someone comes through with the thread.

[rinsd]

4. DMC apparently got TS'ed.

Dude was a total pitbull.

[Tellurian]

8. He's an excellent debater...

Too bad the O People had him banned...

The shame is on them for piling onto one poster!

[rinsd]

11. He was relentless.

I spent the entire month of May going head to head with him over electability.

[Tellurian]

15. I've been there and done that with him...

it's when he realized Hillary's poise and potential overshadowed everyone else in the field. The Obama People didn't like that he relentlessly defended Hillary while pointing out Obama's weaknesses.

Perhaps, he knew before they did, he was on the right track. Her CNN polling numbers as of 4pm today are this:

CNN poll

Clinton 51
Obama 21

[rinsd]

17. I can tell you exactly when he shifted to attacking Obama. The punjab memo.

Those threads got particularly ugly and DMC took it personally.

After that he was on jihad against Obama supporters whether irking them with articles slamming their guy or going after any attack on other candidates made by Obama supporters.

[SaveElmer]

20. I believe he is Indian-American...

Can understand why that might have pissed him off...

[Tellurian]

23. Come to think of it...yes, I believe you're right..

illustrating the 'dark side' at someone else's expense.. That kind of "think" is precisely why Obama's numbers are where they are..He and his... think bashing other supporters and their candidates with never ending ridicule is the way to win votes...heh... All it does is make Hillary's numbers go up..which works for us.

Funny thing is, not one of BO's supporters condemned the smear against the Indian people by their own campaign.

[jefferson_dem]

29. "bashing other supporters and their candidates with never ending ridicule.."

LOL! I don't think i've ever witnessed a more obvious pot-meet-kettle post on DU.

But that's ok.

Cheers! :toast:

[Tellurian]

34. Not really...when you behave yourself, you can be a nice person...

and if Hillary comes out on TOP..you're with us..RIGHT?

LOL! :toast:

[jefferson_dem]

36. Of course.

I don't like to advertise it too loudly...but she is my second choice.

Now...back to work. :hide:

[durrrty libby]

19. You nailed it and Wow over those CNN #s. She is Rocket Woman

[jefferson_dem]

22. I know. And the funny thing is he/she/it always claimed to be an Edwards supporter.

LOL! Dayum. I loved the passion and he/she/it was a relentless debater...but the thinly-veiled loyalties were so obvious.

[Tellurian]

24. You're wrong on that...He WAS sincere about Edwards..

he also saw how Hillary was surging in the polls. What good would it do to continue supporting some one who cannot win mainly because of poor financial planning? Hillary was his second choice. The more her campaign platform was revealed, I think, dmc was preparing to make the jump. Besides, Hillary thoroughly condemned the Obama campaign for their racist and ethnic slurs during their Indian smear campaign.

[TSIAS]

30. That is an untruth

No one faction of DU'ers can get someone banned.

Maybe he got the axe because he couldn't behave himself after being warned?

[JNelson6563]

32. Oh contraire my friend

Happened with some regularity during the 04 primaries. A posse showed up from Thugs-are-us and, frankly, the place still hasn't completely recovered. Never will.

[BeyondGeography]

13. If he was banned, I'm surprised

He was Johnny One Note on Obama but his threads were so easily debunked it didn't matter to me. Dude was a totally inept pitbull.

[durrrty libby]

12. He was great. I often wonder if he has come back under a new name.

I have my suspicions

[jefferson_dem]

16. I often wonder if DMC was actually a "sockpuppet" for one who is already here under a familiar name

I too have my suspicions.

He/she/it and I had numerous run-ins. A DU original...

[Tellurian]

18. I believe he was really hurt that those who disliked him would go to such lengths

to have him banned. The ignore feature is at everyone's disposal. Except, pileons and mass outrage geared to a mob mentality seem to be more fun for some.

[SaveElmer]

21. Hey he had the balls to admit when he was mistaken...

I went several rounds with him over Hillary's electability...but when the evidence started to roll in that he was mistaken...he manned up and admitted it...

[jillan]

25. I miss him. He always started lively debates. Made things more interesting around here.

I heard he got the tombstone.

hmmmmm. Wonder who would do that to him?

[durrrty libby]

26. "Wonder who would do that to him?" What can I say..People suck

[rufus dog]

28. not my experience

He became a large Hillary supporter and may have apologized to the HRC supporters. He called me a Brown shirt for arguing Obama's stance on merit pay. And that was after one post! He or she wasn't man/woman enough to apologize.

I didn't want him banned, would have liked to meet him/her face to face though.

[geek tragedy]

27. Here's his tombstone:

[JNelson6563]

33. Shocking considering what some DUers get away with

:yoiks:

[Tellurian]

35. Oh yeah, now I remember...you were the one gloating over dmc's banning..

thanks for the reminder...thug!

[geek tragedy]

37. You remember falsely.

Which is typical.

[rufus dog]

39. funny how you make things up in your head.

I don't seem to recall any partying.

[Exultant Democracy]

31. I guess my ignore list is back down to 3 people, good times.

[Dawgs]

38. Yeah, exactly what DU needs - more hate.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

40. And more HYPERBOLE!

:hi:
