One question ...

What the HELL IS DRIVING THESE PEOPLE TO DO THESE SPEECHES..

Iraq and the War on Terror are the new third rail...and to see them throwing themselves on it day after day......just doesn't make a damn bit of sense!

What is going on!!!!!!

One of two things: they think the tide is turning in their favor and are trying to give it a nudge, or their internal polls are horrific.

It's obvious isn't it? They're poll numbers are terrible, and they're trying to energize their base -- the usual collection of union members, leftists, socialists, one-worlders, etc. to turn out to vote for their candidates in November. And indeed the momentum may be moving in their favor; more newspapers (controlled by the lefties) are coming out for the Gore-Daschle position, including today's usually even-handed ABQ Journal.

What is going on!!!!!!

I'm wndering also .. can the poll numbers be so low that the are commiting political suicide like this??

[bonesmccoy]

I think they are trying to delay the vote in the Senate on the Iraq resolution and on the Homeland Defense. These delays are subverted US negotiating strength in NYC at the United Nations. People who profess that they are "moderates" or "non-partisan" can no longer profess this. Either they are with us or they are against us.

Kennedy, Gore, and Daschle have just relegated themselves to the ashheap of history (along with Feinstein and Boxer too).

Daniel Inouye should get some back bone and stand up and defend his nation TODAY.

"What is going on!!!!!!"

Things are progressing exactly as planned.

Hillary will run in 2004 I am now positive.

The dem strategy meeting took place just prior to Daschle's melt down and the day after Gore made an idiot of himself in SF.

Every single dem that expressed the possibility of running in 2004 has been led off the cliff with the exception of Lieberman.

Gephardt - Old news of his questionable loans from McAuliffe's questionable bank, and his rental property and the tax evasion that went on.

Sharpton - Any accident that FBI tapes from eon's ago just happened to be brought front and center showing him participating in a possible drug deal?

Kerry - Hasn't his Vietnam service been called into question. Something about a slaughter of civilians at his direction.

Edwards - Was grilled by Tim Russert on MTP. Since when does Russert grill dems? He was pronounced not ready for prime time. Froze like a deer in the headlights at the simplest of questions.

Daschle - Has obstructed, quite obviously. And since that tune wasn't playing loudly enough, the dem strategy meeting has him call in the press so that there is plenty of documentation of his melt-down. He's toast.

Gore - Decided to test out yet another personality in SF. Obviously did not play well to the majority of Americans and even the more moderate dems are giving him a wide berth.

Lieberman - Expect Rubin to be called to testify on Citigroup and their role in the Enron collapse via some questionable loans that were apparantly not exactly "on the books". Citigroup is Lieberman's largest campaign contributor.

So who's left standing? Hillary! She will have to break her "promise" to the people of NY because her party will call her to serve.

Today, even Clinton distanced himself somewhat from the Daschle/Gore ideology. While not exactly a hawk, did say that we shouldn't back down on the war on terror and there shouldn't be politics being played. As I said, everything is going exactly as planned. There can be no doubt as to who is still the head of the DNC. It's Bill Clinton, even though not officially.

We should be very afraid.
