People should have thought about supporting a candidate that all could support if they were concerned about the SC.
Besides, Obama is going to trounce our 72 year old white guy who has been in the senate his entire Post vietnam life.
“People should have thought about supporting a candidate that all could support if they were concerned about the SC.”
Democracy is strange that way. Sometimes the person getting the most votes wins, sometimes not. What’s interesting to me is that you appear to assume that the candidate that you are for (whoever that is) is someone “...that all could support.” I think you mean, “...that I could support.” Maybe you should have been more active on behalf of the candidate you supported instead of blaming everybody else for not putting YOUR candidate over the top.

I think you’re right, but, like sports, you still show up for the game even though that other team is favored. Your way, the loss is guaranteed because you don’t even show up - you forfeit - not only the next 4-years, but on abortion and the war on terror with years, if not decades, of implications on both issues. I may feel personally let down by the republicans, but I’m going to support our troops and living babies even if I have to go down swinging. That’s what I think Reagan would do.
