Indeed. I think we're all supposed to lay back and enjoy it.

Oh, please. Anyone reading through the site, which I have, can see that these are people who are big-time Hillary supporters, are committed to her and totally ticked at how she was treated by the Dems. Nice try.

I'm sorry, teatime, but you are incorrect. But those sites *are* under investigation. You can choose not to believe me, of course. And I can't provide "proof." Rather--I could, but it would not be wise to do so. Sorry.

P.S. I have no doubt that some of the people on these sites are ticked-off Hillary supporters, who've been deceived into believing that the sites were begun by equally disappointed Democrats. The chances are very good that they were not. And that's all that I'm going to say on the matter.

It's true, many of these so called PUMA sites have been started by Republicans.

Democrats for McCain is a good example:

It's called Divide and Conquer, and it works best with fools.

It works with the Arabs. It works with the DNC.

Why change a winning formula?

Now this is interesting. If you don't want to answer, feel free to ignore me. Really, I don't want to put you on the spot. But....

How can you go from a pro-choice, pro-labor, enviromentalist, ERA supporting, gun controlling, NAFTA supporter, secular humanist candidate (Hilary) to the POLAR (ha ha, no pun intended) opposite (Palin)?
