Bernie caucuses with the Dems in the Senate...So he's basically a Dem...And because he votes with the Dems he knew he couldn't pull a Nader...So I'm not handing dude a gold star for not going independent...He would be crucified and ran out of office if he did that.....lol

I don't think u understand....I NEVER SAID BUSH WAS MORE KNOWLEDGEABLE THAN KERRY WHEN IT CAME TO WAR...

No, dog...BUSH'S TEAM PULLED THAT OFF...They were the ones that convinced the public that Kerry, a decorated war hero who damn near died trying to save his men, was a soft Liberal...And how did they pull it off? Dirty smear campaigns (they got some of Kerry's own men to say his his war hero credibility was bullshit)....Historically war Presidents win elections....The public got duped and shit happened....

This is called Politics 101 (also see Papa Bush's Willie Horton ad which turned a solid law and order guy like Dukakis into a soft bitch...)
