Post by: lefty on September 10, 2003, 11:44:00 am: Democratic presidential candidates favorite songs. A pretty sad showing -- except for Al Sharpton that is.

Former Sen. Carol Moseley Braun -- "You Gotta Be," Des'ree.

"Listen as your day unfolds

Challenge what the future holds

Try and keep your head up to the sky

Lovers, they may cause you tears

Go ahead release your fears."

Post by: Barcelona on September 10, 2003, 01:06:00 pm: I don't care if they all told me that their favorite song is a Backstreet Boys, Creed, or Cristina Aguilera song...as long as they beat Bush, Rumsfield and the rest of far right politicians.

Post by: Sir HC on September 10, 2003, 01:48:00 pm: So do you want them to say a song by the Swans or The Genitorturers? I think a Gwar song would be great, and maybe getting them to go out on the campaign trail for you too...

Post by: ggw on September 10, 2003, 02:05:00 pm: Here's what they should be:

John Kerry -- Fortunate Son - CCR
John Edwards -- Lawyers, Guns and Money - Warren Zevon
Joe Lieberman -- Nazi Punks Fuck Off - Dead Kennedys
Al Sharpton -- Rape Me (Tawana Brawley Remix) - Nirvana
Dennis Kucinich -- Cuyahoga - REM
Dick Gephardt -- I Think I'm A Clone Now -- Weird Al
Howard Dean -- Anything from Phish

Post by: mankie on September 10, 2003, 02:07:00 pm: I think Hilary should run and have her campaign song as "Suffragette City"
Title: Re: Born down in a dead man's town
Post by: Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer on September 10, 2003, 02:08:00 pm: I think the reason why Lieberman, Kerry, Sharpton, and Gephardt don't have a prayer of winning can be summed up by a Fishbone song...

"U-G-L-Y You aint got no alibi"..

Yeah I thought it was odd for him to put it on his homepage. DC Government has such a good reputation around the country.

Post by: myuman on September 10, 2003, 08:38:00 pm: I saw that "imagine" popped up. Yeah, it's easy if you try if you are way whacked out. Even worse for a politician to suggest it. That list did go fine with the A.M. comics though... so it was worth the read.

Wasn't that Al in 2000? Come to think of it, Yalie-boy Dubya works, too.
