200. As I said you missed the point.
Edited on Sun Sep-26-10 02:44 PM by No Elephants
Again, you ignore context. I was responding to a post about Kerry and the DLC, not a post about whether Dean was more centrist or less centrist than Kerry.

My point in posting the first quote from wiki was to show that DLC opposed Dean in the Dean v. Kerry primary, that Kerry was the DLC candidate from the jump, not only after Kerry became the Party's nominee.

Because the issue I was addressing in that post was Kerry and the DLC, NOT whether Dean was to Kerry's right or to Kerry's left or dead center, my post had nothing whatever to do with the respective political positions of Kerry and Dean. In fact, I don't recall ever in my life posting on that topic. That was a conclusion to which you leapt incorrectly and without basis, even though neither my words nor the words of wiki that I quoted in my post said a hing about whether Dean was or was not a centrist.

And that quote was one of two from wiki and wiki was one of 3 links I gave, yet you have addressed nothhing but that one quote--and you've misaddressed that.

Edited for typos.
