That candidate if not a socialist but an old fashioned Democrat could turn out to be a good thing for the country.

There is not such thing as an old fashioned dimocrat any more. Look at FDR, LBJ, JFK, Carter, Klinton and now the Fool. Only Harry Truman may have been close. At least he loved America. JFK had some good sides, but the guy was not a conservative. What type of old fashioned dimocrat do you speak of and HOW will that be good for this country. Dimocrats since the 1960s have ruined this nation. I have not seen one in my 60 plus years on this earth!!!!!!!!!!!!

What type of old fashioned dimocrat do you speak of

Henry (Scoop) Jackson (former Senator from Washington in the 50's - 70's) would be quite acceptable...particularly compared to Democrats today. But if he were alive today, he'd be a Republican.
