Freepers For Edwards... The New "Jews for Jesus"
I was just thinking, since I made this comment elswhere... Wouldn't it be amazing if the Clinton and Obama camps where right and there is this huge unseen racist and sexist aspect out there the we are just trying to be blind to.

What if it really is true, and on Super Tuesday all the "freeper" democrats (and you know there are a lot of them) came out and said "screw this change crap" and just voted for the white man.

I mean seriously, would any of us really be that surprised. I mean, Edwards is from the south. And I haven't heard or seen ANY polls from there yet.

I'm just sayin.... It could happen...

5. i think alot of the outrage is being expressed by the phrase
"freeper" democrats. Although i do see your point, ithink the demographic you might be looking for are disenfranchised republicans, the real ones who see through their clowns er candidates. I wouldnt go about calling dems freepers. If someone is going to vote for the color or sex of a person then their positions or votes i would say it would be a freeper and not a democrate.

8. I don't want "freeper" democrat votes.
I don't think I stand alone as an Edwards Supporter here. Actually I'm sick of hearing about race and gender, and I find the whole premise of your post kind of offensive.

10. Wow, this post just went right over some of your heads.
I'm just saying, what if were were all wrong on here. What if our country really is that f@cked up? that's all.
I'm not a racist.
I'm not a sexist.

I just watch the news and I see what they're doing. And sometimes it scares me that they just might be right.

I've barely ventured out into DU for fear of getting sucked up into the emotional vortex. :scared:

12. So, voting for "the white man" (Edwards)..
automatically makes someone a racist, or a sexist? Come on. I intend to vote for Edwards, and I'm offended.
