Let's assume for a moment that it was - Mondale was trounced. The popular vote was not quite a 60-40 split. How in the world was the primary responsible for that defeat? The Democratic party couldn't appeal to Reagan Democrats, hence the name. It was a second term election for a President who was, however inexlicably, quite popular at the time. I'm just not seeing how this is the fault of the primary. I don’t remember that primary as being particularly vicious – just well contested.

I have no idea how she has been able to keep up her efforts with her physical ailments.

And Hillary Rodham Clinton has more courage than you can begin to imagine.

Finally Withers, we certainly are in agreement that Barack Hussein Obama is an empty suit.

So while some will "party down with you and your candidate" others will look at how the break turned out and work the table with the balls as they are. Just remember one thing...you don't get to scratch and put the queue ball where you want it. The sad fact is, if as Sen. Obama believes, "Washington DC is place where good ideas go to die" then his going will not produce anything positive. You may think Obama will bring the troops home, or keep his promises but mark my words it will not come to pass, however much I wish it were so.

C) I'm not a cry baby, like you or hillary clinton. I don't devote whole posts on a blog to garnering personal sympathy for my illnesses, like you do. I don't cry for political expediency like your candidate does. Legitimate criticism of Obama is fine by me, in fact, I argued that he was an empty suit when he ran for the senate, something I doubt you were saying then. You'll be a puddle of tears when your candidate loses by next week! then you'll vote for McCain, like the republican you are! A) hes not my candidate.
