You know, I've had an epiphany. I can't really support Kerry any longer.
The more I look at what's going on, the more disgusted I become with the state of the Democratic party. As much as I like him as a person, I don't really see Kerry out there offering any new solutions. It's been a long and agonizing soul-search, and I truly do love all of you guys in here, but I can't go on with the status quo being what it is. I think I'm gonna have to pull my hat out of the ring. Right now I'm inclined to support Feingold for '08, just because he's willing to do something new and brave, which the rest of the Dems can't seem to be able to manage. As far as this summer goes: at least it'll be a valuable resume-padding experience. I'm sorry to have to break it to you, and thanks for all the memories, but I don't think I can call myself a Kerrycrat any longer.




















































OMG, YOU DIDN'T ACTUALLY BELIEVE THAT, I HOPE????????????


SUCKAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


APRIL FOOOOOOOOLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2. You had me worried for a split second.
But, coming from you, I just scrolled to the end of the page and it was what I thought.

5. I believed you. In fact, I was so upset, I just went and drank a
whole bottle of whiskey. And as I cried and blubbered around the house, my daughter read the rest of your post.

Now I have to go sleep this off....























April Fools.

I was already laughing as I clicked to open the thread.

7. Well as it was April 1 and I had earlier read your side bar post
It seemed pretty sudden. Now, there are some people on DU, who I expect could change on a dime - you weren't one of them. (Also, even if true - a summer with Vektor and working in his office, would likely be the remedy)

Before the Boston event, I did wonder as so many of you were going - what if something happened and Kerry being human - it was a really off day... but that clearly wasn't the case.

Good try though

13. I knew :)
Hate to tell you, but I knew it was April Fool's from the get-go. It'd be different if you'd just been an occasional poster or a lurker, but there's no way someone can go from being a diehard Kerrycrat to saying Feingold 2008. :)

15. No, didn't believe it. Although my first thought was,

"This better be an April Fool's joke." And it was thought in a very harsh and sinister tone, by the way.

16. Top of Post forwarded to Kerry's office before seeing bottom
I guess I should of read the entire post before cutting and pasting the top of the message and forwarding it to David Wade with the warning that a Feingold supporter was infiltrating them.

He said after this there's no way he'd let you in Kerry's office. I don't know if this damage can be repaired.
