Why I won't be voting for ANY of the Dem candidates

[DrBB]

Cuz they all suck, that's why. I didn't use to think so. I used to think a lot of 'em had at least something on the ball. But I've been reading DU faithfully for some time now, and I've learned that whatever positive attributes any of the candidates have going for em are completely outweighed by the ghastly shortcomings that have been so relentlessly pointed out.

I was holding out for Clark, but nope--he doesn't cut it either, as I have learned in the last couple of hours. My god, what a total waffling schlub--and probably a war criminal to boot! Can you believe the Dems are dumb enough to let him put his name in the ring? Must be because the others are all awful too, each in his own special way.

Well--phew!--what a relief! All I can say is, THANKS! Cripes, if I hadn't been reading DU, I might've been dumb enough to actually go out and VOTE for one of these guys.

1. what's this mean

you will be setting this election out or are ya joining the jr. crowd

[mkregel]

2. Another Republican For Nader...

they say Lucianne has openings...

[T Roosevelt]

3. You are SO right

I can't believe what these candidates are saying! They are truly absurd, and it's unbelievable that we can't do better. :evilgrin:

[TSIAS]

4. I sense sarcasm

but I could be wrong.

[DancingBear]

5. Errr....

Could DrBB perhaps have tongue planted firmly in cheek??

Nice. :) :) :)

[DrBB]

9. Let's just say it's a little test

I was gonna put one of those </sarcasm> tags at the end, then I decided, naaaaah, let's just see how humorless some of these bastids are.

[NNN0LHI]

17. I hate </sarcasm> tags. Never use them. Keeps em wondering that way

Point well made and taken. :)

7. Did Clark eat your puppy too?

[kysrsoze]

27. OK, that was REALLY funny. Nice job.

[TheZoo]

8. I can relate

And I'm thinking this is a great post. From Dean's wife not being "First Lady" material to Kerry not playing a good guitar, they all suck.

Great sarcasm, but it does prove that people are very "My team first". Until we realize that it's "OUR team first", we're going to be doomed to four more wars, uh, years of *.

[Julien Sorel]

10. Oh yeah?

Well let me tell you about your candidate, None Of The Above. He is a lazy good for nothing ZERO. Waffle? Hah hah hah. NOTA doesn't even have the balls to take a position to begin with, let alone flip flop on it. And what I really hate about that son of a bitch is that he always screwed me up by being the wrong option on multiple choice tests. Fuck None Of The Above! He's useless.

I much prefer All Of The Above. She combines the flaws, real and imagined, of all the other candidates such that she's the perfect DU alternative: she pleases no one, pisses everyone off, and gives them a target to vent their impotence on. All Of The Above in 2004!!! Her motto is the best: "Everything You Love TO Hate."

[Patriot_Spear]

11. Yah, you make a lot of sense... PSYCHE!

Ha-ha had ya going, didn't I. You must be some kind of loon, hit the skids pal, you're outta here.

They're all great candidates- what's the alternative, the GreenOP Party? LMAO



oooohhh ,you got me; I feel so used...

[DrBB]

18. The point being

I'd like to hear more of what you just said and a lot less of what I've been reading around here.

Irony? Oh, ha ha ha ha ha, no. We don't get that here.

12. LOL! Point scored!

:hi:

[Booberdawg]

13. Clark has a pimple on his ass

otherwise he looked promising

[diplomats]

19. He and Rush Limbaugh!

:)

[Stuckinthebush]

14. Beautiful!

Excellent post and well received by many here.

[JasonBerry]

15. Here's what gave it away....

"...ghastly shortcomings that have been so relentlessly pointed out."

I must admit though, you had me going for a second there. But, the statement above gave it away.

See??? YOU'RE not even perfect! Good writing!

[DeaconBlues]

16. Damn - you got the attitude just right

People round here seem to want Jesus as a candidate. At this point, I would be happy with anyone who won't destroy the world as we know it (that is, anyone but Bush).

[opihimoimoi]

20. ABB

:kick:

[RetroLounge]

28. People round here seem to want Jesus as a candidate?

Jesus? No way.

He's WAY too liberal... Would totally alienate the swing voters.

Has No military experience.

Hung out with a known woman of ill repute.

Not sure about his parents. Heard he might be Jewish.

[DeaconBlues]

31. Oh, oh. You're right.

He's definitely got too much baggage. But maybe he would be good V.P. Dean/Jesus in 2004?

[WillyT]

21. Hee, hee... Nice Basket DrBB !!! ---Was That A Three Pointer ???

SWISH... Nothin but net!

:evilgrin:

[ProudGerman]

24. Not a three pointer

It was a grab a dollar from the top of the backboard and leave change, take your ball and go home because you got punked, everybody leaving their seats slam dunk.

[robbedvoter]

22. yeap. Circular firing squad. Still, I gleaned useful info too in

all the bashing. We are at the "falling in love" stage (as coined by Clinton). People are passionate and that is good.
I still feel that the ratio of thoughtful to senseless attacks is decent enough to keep me coming back.

[damnraddem]

23. Do us a favor:

vote for a third-party candidate; or don't vote at all. Just don't vote for Dubya. Thanks!

[kysrsoze]

29. A bigger favor: Don't post B.S. anymore

I don't have the time or patience to sift through stuff like this - only enough energy to send a roaring flame.

[whathappened]

25. yuppper you got me with this post

i fell for it hook line and sinker , but you got to understand with jr. running this country , everybody is'nt having a good time , my wife and i are just one step ahead of the big dip into living in the streets with alot of the others who have felt the foolish decisions that jr. have made to this country , i'm disabled and can't even get out and try to bring the bacon home again , and my wife is killing herself trying to keep the rest of the money rolling in that it takes to make a happy home , so forgive me for not thinking your joke was so cool , everybody is'nt singing a great tune in life right now , some of us are hurting and when ever someone posts something about not voting for a new dem pres. i get pissed off real fast

[DrBB]

30. Wasn't really trying to "get" anyone

...except in the sense of trying to get em to step back and look at what we're doing and what the REAL enemy is around here. As your post so eloquently points out. I didn't want anyone to think my joke was cool, I wanted them to THINK.

[ShaneGR]

26. I wish we could do a post-election "who were the disruptors" survey

I'm guessing that one out of then posters are only here to bash Dems because they love *.

Nice sarcasm btw, it took me a few seconds to see it.
