One Year Ago Today, What Was DU Talking About? Let's Find Out

[THUNDER HANDS]

Going into the wayback machine (aka the archives) we find that DU was discussing....


A generic primary poll in which Hillary Clinton received 5% of support to Obama's 14%, both well behind Wesley Clark (28%) and Al Gore (33%).

A thread entitled, "GOP Views Clinton As Virtually Unbeatable."

A thread about Peggy Noonan comparing Hillary Clinton's views of the world to Rudy Guliani, because at the time Guliani was thought to be the strongestg GOP candidate.

1. The times, they are a-changin.

Today is almost a complete inversion of the state one year ago.

2. I could pull up poll after poll after poll showing Edwards was #1 at DU for months.

Not to mention Kucinich.

Obama is at least third down the list at DU.

See. I can pee in your pool too.

Got anything useful to say?


No class.

4. For all we know, John Edwards is probably still #1 at DU

But out in the real world, he decided to suspend his campaign.

If you disagree with his decision, why not send him an e-mail?

Or maybe go to his mansion and pee in his pool ... ;-)

6. I'm quite sure he is.

But if DU wants to support their #3 (or lower) choice, that's fine with me.

I support the nominee.

9. I hope that all of us will support the Democratic ticket.

Maybe all of us should copy your sig line - just to make it clear! B-)

8. And the point of that was to be... rude?

Do YOU have anything useful to say?

3. So, GD:P is consistently wrong? I can accept that.

Sorry, Barack.

[Apollo11]

5. Except Barack is also winning out in the real world.

Are you saying that "reality" has a well-known pro-change bias? :eyes:

[rug]

7. The nature of existence is change.

The nature of GD-P is, shall we say, misplaced exuberance.
