[history]
Bill Clinton failed to lead the Democratic Party during last month's midterm elections, the Rev. Al Sharpton said yesterday, and the former president is now compounding the party's poor showing by blaming others.
"For him to say that the Democrats failed to bring out a message is wrong," Mr. Sharpton said in an interview with The Washington Times. "He was the messenger, he was the one out there and helped run the campaign, him and [Democratic National Committee Chairman] Terry McAuliffe. So how can he give an objective opinion with his subjective involvement?"

Remember how we'd gripe about the circular firing squads conservatives ran during the Clinton years?
It's GOOD to see the Dems doing it.

If I run, I will be the first black presidentPlease, please, please make a run in the primaries, Al!!! Please!!!
All the white Democrats (one of whom will eventually take the nomination) will have to fight Sharpton, distance themselves from his hyper-affirmative action, gung-ho reparations agenda or cave in.
If they cave in to Al, maybe five white people will vote Democrat in 2004. If they fight him, maybe eight black people will make it to the polls in 2004.
It's a win/win situation.

One deliciously ironic aspect of this is that Al and his ilk are as big a problem for the Democrats as the Clinton "legacy." Dontcha love it?
To: BuddhaBoy
You mean the first Yellow president, Al.

Up close, cannibalism is such an ugly human trait.
But from a distance, it makes an interesting spectator sport.

Funny article. Interesting enough.....
Mr. Clinton said in a speech Tuesday to the Democratic Leadership Council that the Democratic Party lost the midterm elections because its candidates could not convince voters they could handle national security, and that the party was perceived as weak in the face of terrorism. Clinton is exactly right. When he ran for president it was "the economy stupid". But it isn't anymore. It's "the War stupid". The rats either haven't figured that out... or think they can change the emphasis to economy or soical issues. But they can't. It will "the war stupid" for at least 2 more years.

Al Sharpton calls x42 "the first beige president".
There's no doubt he's off-color.
To: BuddhaBoy
Sharpton running might be enough to make me register as a Dummycrat just to vote for his nomination. I would love to see a 535-3 electoral vote win for Bush.

$250 billion over 5 years! Spend, spend, spend, Al!

GOP Governor to End 40-Year Era in Hawaii
"Compared with bygone days, when they were throwing off a Republican elite that fostered social inequity, Democrats are less rabidly partisan, said Pat Loui, president of the polling firm OmniTrak. Fewer people remember times of plantation oppression."
"Democrats, by contrast, look tired compared with the days when they transformed Hawaii, said Gregory Gaydos, associate professor of political science at Hawaii Pacific University. "They did a lot of good things, but as time went by, they... ran out---of steam

First Beijing President?
To: wideawake
I'm in! Where do we contribute to a Sharpton in 2004 campaign? Maybe Al Gore can reprise his role and fill the No. 2 spot for Al Sharpton.
Slogans...we need slogans...
"Black and Bore in 2004"
"Two Al's are better than none!"
"Black and White take the fight to the Right!"
"Al one and Al two will get the checks back for you!"
"Al's in the family!"
"Double your pleasure, double your fun, these Al's are hip, they gonna run!"
"Ain't no lockbox these Al's don't have a key for"
"Al yo' bases belong to us!"
To: BuddhaBoy
The highlight of that speech will be a proposal to spend $250 billion over five years on infrastructure revamping, a project he said would infuse the private sector with jobs and money. That notion would be funny if wasn't so sad.....
