2. why is anyone a "follower" is my question.. this is getting insane..
Thank God most Americans are still Idol on American Idol and not paying that much attention to this shit..

This fighting and b.s. is why most people throw up their hands and walk away and say "nothing ever changes no matter who it is .. fuck them all".

7. But of course.
The Holy One must be immortalized! And I think they should allow Ted and Caroline to imprint their hands at the entrance to ObamaTemple!!

Have we got that Vision thing going, or what! :D

6. Thank you. K&R
I voted for Obama on Tuesday because I thought that of the two remaining candidates, he would be the better President. But I wasn't as emotionally invested in my vote because I believe that the differences between Senator Obama and Senator Clinton are slight, especially when compared to the differences between either of them and the "candidates" the GOPigs have put forward.

But I am sick and tired of the tone of debate here at DU between the Clinton camp and the Obama camp. Neither one of them is perfect. Both have their flaws and skeletons in their closets, but both are preferable, IMHO, to any of the Repukes running this year, or for that matter, any year during my lifetime. (I might add that Harry Truman was President when I was born.)

C'mon, folks. We're all Democrats, aren't we? Don't we want to see our party win in November? Don't we owe it to ourselves, to our nation, to future generations, to do all we can to make that happen? And yet here we are, squabbling among ourselves like a bunch of second graders.
