Who has credibility? Who would kill the cause? Who would be killed by it? |
|
Just think of people, after all, that is all we really have in a political party.
Kerry - would be killed by the GOP if he was fighting for fraud
MM - would kill the cause because he is seen as a partisan hack by many, including Dems
JJ - has been fighting against voter suppression for years and has credibility, but is not seen as a hack. he, by speaking now can help with minimal damage to both him and the democratic party
Glibs - attacking them would be like hitting a man with glasses and then shooting him in the back, so instead they get ridiculed but still get the job done (while actually gaining support)
feel free to keep the list going...

Kennedy Too partisan. Viewed by many as a liability
Lieberman too much of a GOP suck up but might have credibility in this instance
Al Gore, partisan, but nothing to gain or lose. Perfect Advocate for the cause.
Caroline Kennedy Lawyer, daughter of a legend . Nothing to gain . Tons of credibility.

But remember that he's been labeled a "terrorist" by the Repubs.
Compared to Carter, georgewbush is a moral leper. Come to think of it, compared to just about anybody, georgewbush is a moral leper.
(If I say his name real fast, I'm less likely to throw up.)

It's true, after watching that video and seeing him say "no problems" with the election... something is going on... and it is going on on our side... http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=203

6. I see what your saying |
|
the only I can see credible right now might be Aaron Brown since he is middle of the road. At least for the only msm besides Olbermann speaking out. As far as who could speak out????

7. What about Carl Bernstein? |
|
Carl has always been a maverick and really put his balls out to get Nixon on Watergate. Woodward seems to have gone soft but I think he always kinda was.
Carl Bernstein has nothing to lose from investigating this. Hell, it's what he's good at. After what he has done for the country, I can't imagine anyone dismissing him too easily.

9. Remember, with KKKarl Rove controlling the media from his own |
|
Command Central station at the White House, the only people with credibility are the ones Rove says has credibility ...and then the media jumps with it..
