Anyone who does not vote for me and my party is Republican Lite.
As some of you might recall, I entered my bid for the presidency this summer under my own Most Progressive Party. Because of that, anyone who does not vote for me and my party is Republican Lite, because you are not moving to the left if you don't vote for me, because I am further to the left than the Democrats.

Wellstone? Republican Lite.
Kucinich? Republican Lite.
Dean? Republican Lite.
Obama? Republican Lite.

If you want to move this country farther to the right, then vote for people like them. If you don't want to, vote for me and the Most Progressive Party, if you don't want to be Republican Lite.

2. Why don't you tell us what your party platform is, and we can then
decide for ourselves?

12. You'll have to do better than that to get a vote.
Non-sequiturs are so Republican-lite.

5. I shall form the Infinitely Progressive Party, sir,
and I will challenge you on every political front.

I am elperromagico, and I am from the Progressive wing of the Most Progressive Party. I have grown tired of your moderate ways.

Infinites of the World, UNITE!!!

17. But at least 0.3% of Arkansans are Communists.
Edited on Wed Nov-17-04 05:50 PM by elperromagico
That's more than enough to win an election!*

* Assuming that there are at least 334 candidates in the race.

18. No, but I can't get to it either now.
Corporatists from the Green and Nader organizations may have crashed the web server. I'll ask IT what's going on.

27. Since I tested -9.25 economic and -7.03 social, it is clear to me ...
... that your dangerous rightwing economic views are combined with an unrealistic adoration of social anarchy. Because I can only support moderates (like myself), I will be unable to vote for you.

22. Yes, even if you don't vote for us.
We'll win because all you need to do is go further left to win, which also means taking guns.

25. Sounds like you've gone to the opposite extreme as the Repukes
Edited on Wed Nov-17-04 06:53 PM by StopThePendulum
Anyone to the right of the extreme left is Repuke Lite? Who's calling who the extremist?

Thanks a bunch for discrediting the left </sarcasm>

26. If you want to keep losing elections, go right with the Democrats.
Edited on Wed Nov-17-04 07:06 PM by LoZoccolo
But if you want to win, go left with the Most Progressive Party. I will win, because I am not Republican Lite. A lot of these people who voted for Bush* are just waiting for a further left candidate to vote for. Well, here I am, rock you like a hurricane.

28. This is some kind of joke thread right?
If you are so far to the left that you are calling Wellstone a Republican one of 2 things is going on either:

1. this is a joke

2. you are a total loony toon

29. You may think I'm a total loony toon...
...but a ton of voters who voted for Bush* instead of Kerry would vote for me instead because of my further-left policies. They would not think I'm a total loony toon.
