Bush is spinning now ramping up the old rhetoric, trying to scare your pants off ---- The only thing the right wing understands is fear, it''''s the glue that keeps them together.

Stuff your sports analogies. Democrats argue and bicker because they don''t march lock-step for "the good of the party". They are thinking, caring, open individuals with minds of their own. They will pull together when it''s time - don''t you worry your little head about it..

Oh, dear. The Democratic party is actually letting the voters have a say (at least a little bit) in the selection process.

The voters see two good candidates. They''re having a hard time choosing.

What is so horrendous about this process? Have we all succumbed to the "Me, now" attitude that demands to know immediately who our nominee will be?

The lengthy primary campaign has one huge advantage for Democrats. Whoever the nominee turns out to be, he or she will have been tested by the process to a degree far greater than John McCain.

Mr. Meyer, you seem to feel that Democrats would be better off with another WASP male. I find that sad.

oh, just shut up. the democrats have two very popular, very competitive candidates, both of whom will destroy mccain. the right doesn''''t even like the guy they nominated, and this clown is complaining because the left is passionate about both of their candidates? suddenly competition is a bad thing? here comes the media and their absurd pseudo-insight and senseless shiit-stirring...

Well said.

And,I might add, that Mr. Meyer sounds like he is ready/suited to join Rush Limbaugh, et al, on the radio airwaves.

People who boast about democracy in this country are also afraid of democratic process of electing their representative. Otherwise why should they be afraid of the continuing contest between Hillary and Obama? Is there a recommended dose for democracy? They Hillary and Obama slug it out; it is good for their spirit and for the country. From what I see, it is the men who like to see the contest end, and Hillary lose. Is it?

keypinitreel,,,, You think ?? --- Make this country safer, Don''t think

McCain isn''t telling you the truth on the War on Terror, national security, or our economy.

Americans fear more than democrats that another right wing, fear mongering neo-con in power focusing on terrorists and enemies exclusively will end in a failed United States.
