Okay so it's still a year until the primary season begins, so there's hope yet. Nonetheless, let's take a look at the three leading candidates for the Democratic nod ... we have
1.) A Black freshman senator from Chicago whose name CNN has easily (and willfully?) confused with "Osama." Yeah, I can picture your average American yokel saying (With twang in accent): "I ain't votin for no Osama, or Obama, or whoever the fuck he is".
2.) A vice-presidential loser who was basically absent for the second half of his VP campaign who, himself, only served out one term in the Senate.
3.) A White, female New York ultra-liberal who is the wife of the man many Republicans had taped to their dart boards.
Ummmm HELLO!!!!! Yeah, they're all brilliant people who DESERVE to be president. BUT HASN'T THE FRICKEN PARTY LEARNED BY THIS POINT THAT THE MOST DESERVING PERSON DOESN'T WIN!?!?! WHAT ABOUT ELECTABILITY?! NONE OF THEM HAVE IT!!!!!
Now, let's look at the top Republican competition:
A middle-of-the-road White male Vietnam vet, from the southwest, with more Senate experience than the above three candidate combined. Shit.
As much as I hate the Republicans, C'mon Democrats, put up a challenge.
We're fucked.
