It's September and I still don't have a candidate.
I thought I'd have one by now. I honestly did.

Shit...

I live in Tennessee and I'm already trying to practice saying, "President Thompson" without puking in my mouth.

I see people here who say our field is so great. I don't see that. Granted, I think the Republican field is worse, but I also know they have the media and the backbones.

I really hate this. I was so excited in 2003-2004. This is such a let-down for me.

Wow... what a difference four years makes.

3. Give me a fucking break ...

I have a brother and sister-in-law in Tennessee and they are NOT practicing anything that has to do with Mr. droopy-jaws, ugly mug Thompson's name in it.

You sure sound like a "wishy washy Democrat" to me.

How sad.

11. Me either maseman... but unlike Clark2008...


.... I would never diss the Democratic Party over the party of perverted dirty old men.

Clark2008 sounds like she's been nipping at the koolaid.

Let her vote for the droopy-jawed, nasty smelling old man if she's so inclined.

25. Yes but Little Clarkie..

She unfortunately is saying more flattering things to the r-THUGS than she is to the Democrats..

(as if everything that has happened is our party's fault )

They had full power and control for the past 12 years and we can't work miracles overnight.

Some people seem to forget so quickly...

28. Nothing Wishy-Washy About It. Most of Us Didn't Think Bush** Would Get sElected in 2000 Either
and after it happened again in 2004, we are afraid that the Mighty Slime Machine and Diebold may be able to do it to us again in 2008.




(Though I think it more likely they want to install the Ghoul than Thompson)

5. I am with you. 2003 had a much better field.

I am having a tough time deciding as well. Until I do decide on someone, I will continue to display Thomas Jefferson.

6. Wow, you must be joking.
or maybe I missed the sarcasm in you post. What made you so excited in the 2004 election, The level of candidates on the democratic side are outstanding in this election and the backbone of any one of our candidates will beat all theirs combined. Please tell me you are kidding.

22. Teer is proper for someone who is dyslexic
Edited on Tue Sep-04-07 10:57 PM by Quixote1818
Try failing 2nd grade because you learn differently from everyone else then having people constantly scold you for not spelling things correctly.

On edit: You can purchase my book at the link below. Not bad for someone who can't spell.

Teer and Tier both get a green light.

Looks like I am not alone. Just did a search from "Top Teer" on Google. All kinds of bloggers etc. spelled it wrong too.

9. Hmmmm. It's Funny How Perceptions Can Differ So Wildly. I Think We Have Great Candidates.
I also couldn't imagine, over a year to go to the election, having the weakness of mind to utter something along the lines of "president thompson". Geez, buck up and get out the vote for chrissakes! We've got over a year to go and you're letting the whiff of defeat waft over you already? C'mon now. Get motivated!

14. Why are you practicing Thompson's name?
Edited on Tue Sep-04-07 10:44 PM by tyedyeto
There are plenty of Democratic candidates at this point, so why are you dwelling on the Repugs?

Does Hillary have it sewn up? Not in my point of view. But no one does since there have been no primaries or caucuses yet.

Let's wait until primary season to begin before we start counting our chickens.


Edit cus I'm a grammar nutcase. LOL

15. It is odd. Thompson's not even the frontrunner. We have three strong
candidates. Pick one at your leisure, and be at peace.

20. It's September, and my candidate isn't running
and neither are my second and third choices (yet).

Of the declared candidates, I toy with the idea of Obama. But that's it.

So I'll join your club. Except I'm not practicing saying "Prez Thompson".

30. I don't either. I'm just going to support whomever gets the nomination.
I may caucus for Kucinich again here in Colorado. Haven't decided yet.

It's actually kind of a relief for me not to be so invested in the primaries like I was last time.
