Maybard Jackson was pushed aside for Terry McAuliffe. Carl McCall's money was diverted to McBride in Florida. The Minnesota Supreme Court justice, who is a formal football star and black (name escapes me) was passed over in favor of Fritz Mondale. Harold Ford was not only passed over for Nancy Pelosi, but Pelosi made a good try at humiliating him in public.
Excellent analysis of govbeancounters post, MissMarple.
