delusionac mofo. Or so I've been told. So fuck y'all and your cardboard candidates. Dean's candidacy is all about changing rules of the game.
Honestly, I'll walk into that booth in November with a clothespin on my nose and do my duty as an American to beat back the right-wing nutjobs.
But I will harbor no false hopes that John Kerry or any of the other establishment-ordained candidates are going to deliver national healthcare for my family, or civil unions for my friends, or anything more than a glossed-over business-as-usual for the environment and foreign policy. And especially business-as-usual for the media conglomerates which are sponsoring this charade called "Presidential Election 2004" tm.
You spoke the truth, Howard. "I don't care what [the media] thinks of me, you're in the entertainment business".
One good thing out of all this. I've ditched what's considered "Liberal" media for good. The Dean campaign has fired up a lot of young folks and communities like DailyKos. Kos, somehow I doubt we're going to be along for the ride if Kerry or Edwards takes this all the way.
I just can't see the attraction of coming to DailyKos to discuss the ins and outs of another top-down, grassroots-blind, technologically-defunct old-world model. Your dad's presidential campaign.
I'd rather go cat blogging.
Onwards.
