Are there any DEMOCRATS on this forum?

[Rob Gregory Browne]

Just asking.

[tekisui]

1. Present and Counted.

[2rth2pwr]

20. Obama? Is that you?

[Liberal Gramma]

2. Yes, I've voted for every Democrat in every race for 45 years.

[redqueen]

3. All my life.

Stick around a little longer... maybe a few weeks isn't enough...

How long have you been a Democrat?

[napi21]

4. Yes, but I don't spend a lot of time in THIS forum anymore. I check

in several times a day, but I prefer rational thinking and somewhat reasonable conversation. That's surely been overtaken by a lot of crazies in the last several months, and I just can't be bothered.

[avrdream]

35. Yeah, what napi said.

I check in now and then to see just how crazy it is getting in here.

[MethuenProgressive]

5. We're all just struggling authors waiting to become household words.

Good luck with that.

[BuyingThyme]

6. That's what they used to ask in the Lieberman Forum.

[hfojvt]

7. not here

we're Democratics. :P

[LittleClarkie]

8. Yawp

They'll have to pry my membership card out of my cold, dead, hands.

I'll vote for the nominee. But watching the behavior during primary season will determine if I feel like campaigning much if the nom happens to be Hillary.

[cali]

9. yes, but we're largely

consumed by primary infighting at the moment. Good luck with your book!

[laststeamtrain]

10. If people who've 'fallen in love' (as they say) with one neo-liberal candidate or another...

...can still be called Democrats, then yes.

Otherwise, I don't know.

I need a program. I'm having trouble telling one player from another without a program.

[MichiganVote]

11. Sorry, you've reached the mental health ward of DU.

[blogslut]

12. My voter card says YES

In big, red letters.

Now, care to explain why you come in here suggesting we're not?

[baldguy]

13. There the ones that support the Democratic Party -

and then there are those that support Hillary.

[TahitiNut]

14. Sure. And the "Jim Crow" faction seems to be present as well. Ain't that great?

:eyes:

[Yael]

15. Yep. Present and accounted for

:hi:

[Blue-Jay]

16. As opposed to what?

Are you trying to make a point?

[Aussie leftie]

17. that probably has to be the most profound question of the month

K & R

[Rob Gregory Browne]

18. You see, the reason I ask

is because every time I turn around I see people attacking Democrats and running them down and using right wing sources and I just have to wonder how many of the people posting here truly are Democrats. Again, just asking.

[juajen]

19. Welcome to DU, RGB!

I'm proud to be a democrat and a member of DU. Hope you enjoy this forum, but please wait to judge it until after the primaries.

[InfiniteNether]

21. Oh, yes. I'm a McCain Democrat. I'm gonna vote for McCain so he can ship my job overseas and not

give me healthcare and send me to Iran, because Obama said I was bitter and that sealed the deal for me.

[MrSlayer]

22. Democrat checking in.

Yes we are here.

[Flabbergasted]

23. Tell us about your book....?

[bhikkhu]

24. Absolutely! Love to chat, but things are bit busy lately....

one gate after another!

[AllentownJake]

25. Last time

I checked my voter registration card

[barb162]

26. Yeah

[dorktv]

27. no, I am okay with Senator Clinton and do not worship Senator Obama.

That means I am disqualified.

[ruggerson]

28. Yes, you must be reeducated

there is an opening in Stalaag 21. Please be ready by daybreak.

[dorktv]

29. I snore, is that okay?

[mythyc]

30. Present

registered Democrat the day I turned 18 and have voted that way in every election federal state and local since. one lone exception, i voted green for matt gonzales against gavin newsome for SF mayor in 2004. don't regret it for an instant; besides Newsome's general corporate Shrill fucktardery, he's on my permanent shit list after the B.S. he pulled in silencing the entire city (and nation since SF was the only stop) both pro and con last week by shiftily moving the torch route. asshole. still, though a good guy, gonzales isn't making me too happy by running with nader right now....

what's the insinuation of this OP anyway?

[Rob Gregory Browne]

32. As I explained above,

I'm just surprised at how much right wing vitriol seems to be flying around this place and it's hard to tell if we're all progressives or if some of us are simply trolls looking to make trouble. I'm not sure I understand why people who basically share a common cause can't discuss the primaries with at least a modest amount of dignity. It seems that nearly every thread turns into a pissing contest over who has the most disgusting candidate and I think that's a shame.

The simple truth is that if we let this place devolve into some kind of misanthropic fuck you fest, the other side has won.

[bigtree]

31. what, is there a piss test or something?

[Justitia]

33. If you came here to witness the nobility of man, you're in the wrong place.

Or are you just here to scold us?

[Rob Gregory Browne]

34. Of course I'm here to scold you.

Isn't that obvious? Grow up people. We've got an election to win and a country to take back.

[Perry Logan]

36. If you publicly attack Democratic leaders, you're not much of a Democrat.
