Hey Democrats, please remove heads from asses!!!
I am stunned by the infighting among democrats this year. We have an embarrassment of riches. We started with a large pool of candidates (including Edwards, Biden, Richardson, Kucinich etc) -- all of whom were terrific options. We now have narrowed it down to two candidates, both of whom are well prepared to start the rebuilding of American at home and in the eyes of the world (as opposed to the Repug candidate who is committed to many of the same policies as the current administration -- including continuous war). Of course we all have preferences (I am a strong Edwards supporter and I have a preference b/w Sens. Obama and Clinton). However, at the end of the day, I will happily support either one. I realize that DUers are well informed and feel passionate about their candidates. Nevertheless, let's not implode when we are so close to the prize. Cheers!

Its like we're all pissed off choosing between a Classic Ford Mustang GT, a Corvette, or a or a new Pontiac Solstice.

Don't forget we can chose two cars. Which do you want for Vice Car?

;-)

2. Well...
Perhaps Dick Cheney can choose (just kidding). I really don't see Senators O or C being willing to accept VP. I would like Biden for his experience. I also would happily support Edwards, although I don't know if that is the position he is angling for. It will be fun to watch.

5. What year Corvette? I like the classics, but not the
neo-corvettes (You could call the 1984 and after a Reagan Corvette) ...

3. I wouldn't make too much of it.
A few hundred people screaming at each other and making fools of themselves isn't going to make a lot of difference in the grand scheme of things. The vast majority of Americans would laugh and say "the what?" if you asked them if the internet infighting is having a negative affect on the campaign.
