Don't you know that nutty things you say in a college thesis decades ago only disqualify you for high public office if your name is Bork?

don't forget though, that much of the vote for Kerry was not for Kerry but against Bush, the Bush haters and DNC radicals would have voted for Bubbles the chimp if he were running vs Bush

funny thing though I ran into some staunch Democrats based in Florida in New York City (there were a Christian couple, church was an important part of their lives and admitted Bush haters, they hate Jeb as well - gee I should have asked them about how they square their Christianity with hating politicians but I digress)

I challenged them about Kerry and they said, Look, we weren't crazy about Kerry but we hate Bush and the husband said, you know the phrase lesser of two evils to us Bush was the worst of all evils

so then I said so what do you think of the fact that many in your party are touting Hillary as the saviour of the DNC

they looked at me as if I'd just said GW Bush

and I said, what did I say, and they replied, quite vigourously that they hate Hillary and she's not getting the 2008 nomination

and I said, you better talk to the rest of the people in your party, I've read about 10 articles this week all praising Hillary and about how she was going to save the party (I didn't mention all the polls that say Hillary is most popular amongst all voters including Dems)

now I wished I had an opportunity to explore that - was it be because they are Southern Democrats or Christians or both, that they despised Hillary so or were they just part of the moonbat wing of the party and yet they didn't otherwise strike me as that wing of the party....they were clearly working in fields that were negatively affected by Bush policies, Jeb and George, however....

interesting

things could get interesting if the Democratic Primaries evolve into a civil war or some Democratic candidate with just as much money and backing as Hillary, if someone puts together an Clintonesque machine, John Edwards????, in which Hillary might have to worry a bit

I only say John Edwards, who up to now seems a lightweight because if you read some of the behind the scenes comments of Edwards at the time of the campaign and some of his comments since, I think he's snarkier and savvier than he appears...and more ambitious than even Kerry....
