He has already thrown his support to Kerry. The only message allowed this year is unity behind the Democratic Party dictators.

The Rainbow Coalition progressives, the Wellstone progressives, the the Green progressives, the Kucinich progressives, and the Dean progressives, have all silenced themselves and anyone who would dare dissent from the dominant Democratic Party message (brought to you by the special interest money that they all were busy bashing back in primary season).

Again, from AlterNet:

"The DNC opened on a conspicuously military note. The first few acts included: Gen. Wes Clark, an Iraq/Kosovo vet reciting the Pledge, Kerry's "Band of Brothers" from Vietnam, Generals and Admirals from all branches of the military..."

From The Nation:

"
Rosa DeLauro, the savvy Connecticut Congresswoman whom Democratic leaders and the Kerry for President campaign put in charge of drafting the party's 2004 platform, says, "It reflects John Kerry. It reinforces who John Kerry is."

Unfortunately, DeLauro is right.

Instead of a manifesto for change that might attract new support, or at least energize the base, the platform that delegates to the Democratic National Convention are expected to approve without debate is a tepid document largely defined by Senator Kerry's fear of being identified as a liberal – let alone as a progressive seeking to surf what polls suggest is a rising tide of antiwar sentiment."
