Nickname for the DEM Pres. candidates: "The Big Ten" (?)
What do you think? Sure beats the 7 dwarves!

I like our choices. I heard Joe Lockhart on NPR saying that no matter what, Clark strengthens our party on national security. A rising tide floats all boats. Long live the Big Ten! Long may you run. Fricken shrub and his stolen election and his failed presidency may be the best thing that has happened to our party, over the long run.

1. I'll lead with that......
since he started it. We could also be the "Magnificient-10."

That dwarf reference by the right wingers is really cold.

3. CNN's Bill Schnieder
said today, "There are now 10 little Democrats running" ..... I think he was trying to half sing the 10 little Indians song but trailed off into a geriatric brain fart of some kind.

This guy is seriously biased!

2. Can't do that....
You can't name the "The Big Ten"

Because there's only 10 of them.

(I'll wait for the college sports fans to chime in now)

6. Okay, I'll play.
There are 11 teams in the Big Ten.

9. That's exactly what I was thinking.
I was thinking the "The Big Ten" would be much more appropriate if one more candidate entered the race.

4. Curious, isn't it?
With all the blather about Our Wildly Popular and Beloved Wartime President*, there are so many Democrats elbowing each other out of the way to run against his overprivileged ass? Makes you wonder what they know, doesn't it?

This post provided free by your friendly neighborhood gratuitous as a talking point against any wingnuts in your life. Insist on genuine gratuitous brand talking points. If your dealer tries to interest you in another brand, kick him in the nads and run out of his store!

5. Hey, I don't give out these valuable talking points
Just to let them roll off because no one chimes in on my masterful baiting of conservatives!

7. another talking point for you
Gore and Liebermann spent the last election given Clinton the cold shoulder. Now all the candidates are trying to get him in a bear hug---even Grey Davis!

8. That's a good one, too
Republicans don't have anyone to match that kind of star power, and wise Democrats have stopped listening to the conventional wisdom spewed out by the talking head elites. Get Clinton at your event, and you increase the excitement level exponentially.
