Baffled in Loss, Democrats Seek Road Forward
(Selected quotes from an NY Times article)
text
Democrats said President Bush's defeat of Senator John Kerry by three million votes had left the party facing its most difficult time in at least 20 years.
And some Democrats, especially centrist ones, expressed concern that liberals would draw a mistaken lesson from the loss: that the Democratic Party needed to swing back to the left to energize Democratic base voters to counter the upsurge of conservative base voters on the right." That's not a recipe for winning," said Gov. Mark Warner of Virginia, a Democrat frequently mentioned by party officials as a possible presidential contender in 2008. "That's a recipe for disaster."
The problem, some Democrats said, will be even more vexing in 2008, when there will be no incumbent president , leaving the race open on both sides. At this very early date, party officials said Hillary Rodham Clinton, the New York senator, is best positioned to win the presidential nomination.
“We need to persuade people who would otherwise vote for them to vote for us.”
Former President Bill Clinton, in his first public remarks since the election, said on Friday that Democrats "shouldn't be all that discouraged" by Senator John Kerry's defeat. The biggest opportunity he mentioned was the prospect of a peace agreement between the Israelis and the Palestinians, made all the more likely because of the failing health of the Palestinian leader, Yasir Arafat.

Not sure, usually it’s not really served with sides aside from chips or a pickle. It’s an Italian deli type sandwich without any “Cajun” seasoning really. Beans plus a vegetable as a side wouldn’t be bad from a nutrition standpoint, and maybe lean towards an Italian seasoning over Cajun

·4 months agoI saw a hot dog place with a “veggie dog”. It was just bread with a choice of the normal toppings from the meat options, 2 of which were chili and bacon. At least they had it marked for 2 dollars less
vegetarians eat less dairy overall but more cheese than meat eaters
not beating the allegations
Also, the high meat category is 100+ grams (around uk average) and the average USian meat consumption is close to 350g/d, so US vegans might be single digits percentages of their meat eating counterparts if a similar methodology was applied
Would have been fine if you hadn’t been taking notes on a 2x4
·4 months agoHexbear user, before you make another comment taking this at face value:
- What season of Olympics does figure skating take place in? Which Olympics is currently occurring?
- “Suspiciously majestic” appears to be a direct quote. Type it into your search engine of choice and see what you find. Are all the results this exact screenshot?
- Does this seem like a current hot topic but with a twist? Almost like someone was making a joke?
