No doubt.

"Things are being done." which may or may not succeed. Reid and his cabal are not the only actors.
Maybe they'll end the civil war. Maybe they'll go for full-on Balkanization. w00t!
On another note, I got a survey in the mail from the DNC today. Which is odd. Seemed like a push-poll. It made for an interesting work-out session and I'm looking forward to filling it out.

Maybe they will listen to Bill Richardson. Or Chris Rock finally convinced Hillary of dropping out when he said: "Why would you want a job in the same office, the same desk, where your husband got blown by a fat girl? All the redecorating in the world won't erase that. Even Jesus said Hillary's a bigger foregiver than me. 'I talk the talk, girl--but you walk the walk!'"
I'm shocked this post is even here. Usually it is psycho right wing/dysfunctional white male stuff! This is a post alluding to a satirical post without any bizarre vitriol. Kudos...

Stick around, jaycee, we write lots of surprising stuff totally out of sync with our psycho right wing/dysfunctional white male selves.

There are whispers among the Democratic superdelegates that the party will lose the White House if either Clinton or Obama are nominated. Therefore, let's come up with the profile of the likely compromise candidate. First, the candidate would have to subscribe to the economic and foreign policy pronouncements of both of the present candidates. That is easily done, as many Congressional Democrats share the same worldview. The compromise candidate will also have to stanch the bleeding caused by the identity politics practiced by both Obama and Clinton camps. This would have to be done in two stages. First, to counteract the black vs. female battle, the compromise candidate would probably be a black woman. Secondly, the compromise candidate must have a record of backing the Clintons while they were in office but must also be able to reach out to the far left wing of the party. She must be "authentically" black to get support from the Sharpton-Wright subset of the black wing of the party. She must also be a proven fund-raiser from both domestic and foreign sources (just as the Clintons are master fund-raisers from foreign sources). This all points to one woman, and one woman only. The perfect compromise candidate for the Democratic Party would be.......Cynthia McKinney!

Oh, behave CW...
Whatever happens, I just hope Hillary doesn't stop fighting for what is rightfully hers! The throne, errr, I mean the White House.

Watching Obama and Hillary bludgeon each other into also-ran status led me to this conclusion: There is a God.
