If the party is STUPID enough to put up anyone but Thompson, then they deserve Clinton, Obama, or worse.
One of these days, the Democrats, Republicans, and Appropriators in DC are going to have to start acting like adults and less like geriatric adolescents. Same with the voters.
Time to stick to your principals, when your party abandons theirs.
We have a country here with 300 million plus people, nonsense about a political party “deserving” Hilary or Obama is just that. Sorry, but soreheads like you are part of the problem.
