Enjoy the dem sufferings:
As the first Presidential primaries draw near, some of our Democratic candidates are becoming excessively harsh in their criticism of other Democratic candidates.
This harsh criticism is becoming a source of division within the Democratic Party. If it is not curtailed, it could threaten our Unity as we head into the 2004 election.
If you share our concern, we encourage you to sign the Democrats.com Unity Pledge here:

Sincerely,
Bob Fertik, Co-founder
Democrats.com Unity Pledge
As Democrats, we share one overriding goal for 2004: replacing George W. Bush with a legitimately-elected Democratic President who will undo the massive damage created at home and abroad by Bush.
We welcome the vigorous competition of ideas in our Democratic primaries. But we insist that this competition be conducted with civility, respect, and even love for fellow Democrats.
We reject all divisive efforts, whether by individual candidates or their supporters.
And when the primaries end, all Democrats must unite behind our Presidential nominee.
As a loyal Democrat, I pledge my full support for the Democratic nominee for President - whoever wins the primaries.
In addition, I pledge to do everything in my power to defeat George W. Bush and elect a Democratic President.
Finally, I call upon all Democratic candidates - as well as their supporters and Democratic Party officials - to join me in taking this pledge.

Another sign of the times:
WE HEAR . . . THAT the owners of 230 Park Ave. claim they were advised by their security consultants to remove the Christmas cross that had shone from the tower's windows since World War II because, "That cross is a bull's eye to terrorists" (pagesix)
