Why is it that the year Democrats across the Nation should have it easy (GOP having problems, POUTUS approval in the crapper) the Dems are plagued with infighting and bickering? I mean this is true from the Presidential race and below.

Are Dems only happy when they are fighting someone? Even themselves?!?! I am being serious. Dems should be able to just show up and win every election but they destroy themselves on the way to file papers it would seem.

Odd. I would not blame the candidates. I think blame should be on the leadership… Dean on down. This is what happens when you try to appease EVERYONE all of the time without showing leadership. Seems as if the DPVA is suffereing the same ills.

Hahahahahah….your comment on “dickwaving” was completely right on…I am tempted to mail each campaign a “ruler”….
It’s getting silly very early- we need to get through this cycle first.

It is not any different than Hillary and Obama is it? Obviously Moran and Deeds each feel they are better or more qualified for the position.

Personally, I hope they keep it up…if only for the entertainment value.

Moran and Deeds are both honorable men who are bright and caring. If we heard from THEM instead of young mush mouths who act as spokespersons, some of these debates wouldn’t escalate into such meaningless drivel.

Hear hear.

Your comment to not let the mouthpieces speak for them is so pertinent. I have contended for quite some time that if the candidates had to speak more frequently for themselves, the tone of the debate would be somewhat different. Too many of these flacks think if they repeat the smarmy lines they learned at their training sessions in DC they are responding well. All it really does is make the campaigns sound childish and insignificant.

Good advice to the candidates — let’s hope they listen to you.
