re: #433 palomino

Sure, I’d love to see someone else too. But there may not be a “someone else” on the Dem side this go round. Obama was a political force of nature. It’s very unlikely that another one of those will appear from nowhere with the presidential election just two years away.

At this point, it’s not about electing the next FDR (that’s probably not even possible any longer in a nation so huge and polarized). It’s just about keeping the WH…out of GOP hands.

True point. Maybe I do want too much here. I just really don’t feel like reliving the nastiness of the 90’s with Hillary as the nominee but at the same time I know whoever the Dems nominate will be made out to be a Marxist who hates America and Baby Jesus by the right.
