re: Willing to kill anyone who opposes them

is not it a bit over-dramatic for someone setting fire to a sign?

'"The sign had somewhat of a political message on it," Harrisonburg Fire Chief Larry Shifflett told the Daily News-Record. "It appears somebody may have set that sign on fire."'

I bet whoever burned the sign probably does not even any strong political convictions but hates his neighborhood turning into political stage. Those signs probably cut the value of neighbor's property by a half

SO Matthew Rothschild demonstrated the nature of mentally retarded talking heads by posting a title " Arsonist Burns Peace Activists' Home" when in fact a sign in front of the house was all that was burned. And idiots see it as some conspiracy that most likely some kids were having fun, yes it was destructive fun. But nots as destructive as the lying misrepresentation and hate speak of the title.

With Election Day one year away, the race for the Democratic nomination is mired in uncertainty.

While Dean is considered the frontrunner by his rivals, five other candidates are routinely polling near the top either nationally or in key early voting states. Moreover, polls show a majority of voters haven't tuned into the campaign and probably won't until sometime next year.

The race has turned more personal in recent weeks, with Dean getting hammered almost daily now by his rivals over everything from Medicare to the Confederate flag. Top aides to three of Dean's rivals -- Edwards, Kerry and Rep. Richard A. Gephardt (Mo.) -- are privately working together to deny Dean a key labor endorsement from the Service Employees International Union, which meets later this week to decide whether to endorse Dean. The SEIU is the largest union in the AFL-CIO.

The spat of recent debates -- this was the sixth in two months -- has done little to bring clarity to the race, and several Democrats are questioning the wisdom of holding so many debates with so many candidates on stage. In an interview published in Tuesday's Boston Herald, Sen. John Kerry's wife called the debates "silly."
