What is wrong with the Democrats?

What about Mike Gravel? The man doesnt have a snowball's chance in hell, but i think if more people took time to find out a little more about him, they'd be more than willing to vote for the guy

I mostly agree with you. It makes my stomach churn. I can NOT stand Hillary Clinton and I way, way, way don't want her to have the unitary executive power W has established. I find her less inherently evil then Cheney, but no less secretive and power hungry.

I prefer Edwards to Obama, but I don't agree with you that his being black is a deal breaker anymore. America has proved it can accept Black people in power as long as they don't have a black voice. That's what kept Jesse jackson down. Obama has a very white voice.

I think you could be right about the name, though. Of course, I think the main reason Joe Lieberman could never be President isn't the fact that he's a Jew, it's that his wife is named Hadassah, which is WAY too JewISH for America to tolerate. We are a simple people, we want simple names and simple sounds.

And the fact that in THIS environment there isn't one Democrat who could stand up and hget people behind him.... seriously, it does not look good. I think the sun is setting on American Empire. I think we're going to take the deck chair next to the Britts and watch India, Europe, China and Russia decides who gets to be Daddy next.
