It seems like a day does not go by where either Hillary is at Obama's throat or vice versa.......If it not Obama's mentor its Bill's racism comments........Its really getting nasty..Richardson being called a Juda for not backing Hillary.........Obama's surrogates calling Hillary a monster so I think the question begs to be asked.........
 
Bad form...apologies

No, I'd say this is pretty normal for them.

Unlike the GOP, 80% of the Democrat's members aren't homogenous. I'd say that's the biggest factor in driving the Dems apart.
 
based on your OP
no they are not, atleast your post does not imply it
it sounds like a standard election cycle
Bash your competition than offfer them the VP slot when you win
surely this is not the first time you have noticed such in an election cycle with all the elections you have lived through
 
How many of these threads did you create? I saw at least 2 of the same thing just last week!

I voted in the 1960 elections and have been following politics ever since.......I have seen the two parties going after each other many times but nothing of this magnitude.........There is true hatred between these 2 candidates and its all fodder for the November elections............

This is vicious and McCain has to love it.............

You obviously have a very short memory NP. How could you forget '04 Kerry vs. Bush.

Any candidate would love it. This is more the rule then the exception in politics.

we are not talking about the two parties attacking each other
you brought up the 2 dem nominees attacking each other
anybody remember Bush's alleged associates and McCain's illegitimate black offspring?
they attack each other to win the nomination
than they usually rally around the winner for the good of the partya
after all most politicians are partisans
so while i wish you were right
your post does not indicate it

I must say....I agree with this. It's business as usual for anybody in Washington. It only seems like a political wet dream for the most naive of partisans.

You do know the difference don't you? In 2004 it was Kerry VS Bush a democrat against a Republican, to be expected.........This year its 2 democrats that are at each others throats...Huge dfference........

That was one incident.......In this instance there is something new everyday.........We shall see what happens.........The scars might be a little deep on this one.........

Hell all McCain has to do is sit back and enjoy the fight........

Yea........:roll: The poll made a big difference.

Alright, I can't find the other one, so that makes this thread #2. Try not to make a 3rd one okay?
 
Will someone please yank Navy Pride's Red Tag off the self-destruct button.

I already voted for the guy who was in the sickening Forest Fire video we all had to watch at Treasure Island, so there was nothing I could do except pray for the Democratic party to push the self-destruct button.

I know the self-destruct button it is not Out of Service and is working perfectly, due to the budget deficit (no excuse for that one), high gas prices (failure to pass the National Energy Policy I read way back before 911), and Democrats getting the Congress (power to coin money and set the value thereof...).

So, let's stay on topic and help them push the button instead of warning them about it. ;)
 
The party has been self destructing since 04 where the hell have you been? You would think the Dems would learn from past mistakes after the mid terms but sadly no.
 
I say that if the Democrats can't beat McCain this time, they should just pack it in. I can't believe they lost against Bush the second time, in an era of "anyone but Bush", they found the guy that was worse. And now that the GOP is running liberal McCain who wants pretty much perpetual war with many countries, the DNC should be able to slam dunk the election. If they can't it will show definitively that the DNC is completely ineffective and they should fold. Of course, I say the GOP should fold too as it's no longer the party of conservatives and is corrupt and full of socialists.

You know you can say McCain is a liberal over and over but his voting record of voting 83% in the senate proves you are wrong and only helps real liberals like Obama and Hillary......


Be careful what you wish for, you just might get it.......
