want to welcome you back.  As you know, I was urging you not to give up your participation.

You will have to manage your time, not that I am one to offer advice on that  :-)

and yes, much better time management from now on.

I am sure the busier I get the less frequent I will contribute to RK and Kos.

We all need to get together. Not just to celebrate, but to meet in some cases, and to just talk politics and have a few!

if you'd actually have lived up to your promises.

Now you're going to subject us to calling fellow Democrats "cult" members and this jewel:

"Edwards is and dumbass"

We know how you really feel, you're one of those Clarkistas that feels the need to bash your rivals and their supporters.

is one to talk, he's been called out as well. I have nothing to hide. I did bash Edwards for a long time. I have never liked him. Now though recently I am warming to him.

Philgoblue on the other hand, and read his comments on kos he consistently bashes clark or anyone who isn't supporting Edwards. He does it more frequently than I ever have. Why, I don't even blog that much he was bitching on kos before the election about "getting back to work" and writing diaries that were not about 2006.

Here on Raising Kaine we have more common sense than that, obviously he wasn't really doing anything to "get back to work" than to bitch and complain from a computer monitor and a typewriter himself.

Philgoblue has been called out several times by many bloggers on kos for being a hypocrite. It's a shame, and it's a waste of my time. I actually have work to do.

A Bayh/Mark Warner ticket would likely flip Virginia, Indiana, and Ohio without sacrificing any traditional Dem strongholds.  Election over.

Bayh has solid nation security credentials, Warner has a solid graps of economic policy.  Both are moderates, together they would be tough to beat, and they would govern well.

Biden and Kerry are both non-starters.  Daschle likely is in the same camp.

Hilary--capable, but polarizing.
Obama, charismatic and intelligent but inexperienced.
Edwards, (see Obama).

Wes Clark--angling for a cabinet post.
Richardson--a great VP candidate, but needs a background vetting on the "Clintonian-vice" angle.
Vilsak, another non-starter.

political blogging is VERY addictive indeed.

I must take issue with a couple of your favs though! 

Bayh and Vilsack are nothing but DLC corporate hacks.  Bayh was an enthusiastic supporter of the credit card companies lovely little bankruptcy reform bill.  And Vilsack is the current head of the CEO loving DLC.  Bush and the GOP are waging war on the working class in this country, and the last thing we need is another anti-populist/pro corporate dem in the White House.

I must say I'm underwhelmed by our choices.  I'm still waiting for that mystery candidate to emerge. 

BTW, I think Hillary is going to run and take it all.  This is a major change for me, but in the polls I've seen she is not doing too badly in early match-ups.

If you read my comment to your earlier announced departure from this blog, you'll see I am not surprised.  The blogging "bug" is almost impossible to get rid of.  And, as I said, you are a natural.  Glad you are back.

...but since you do not like him or his supporters, I guess I have nothing else to say :p

Who is Wes Clark?

and It was more meant to be a joke anyway. =)

I'm used to the Edwards bashing on Dkos and DU, it's troublesome to find hate speech on my home state blog.

That which doth not kill me makes me stronger!  Eh?

Though, does the good General approve of "hate messages" ?  I didn't think so.
