New blood, new faces, new generation. Trash me, but dang it, love Joe, he and Barack were awesome, but we just need NEW everything.

I hope to have better options in the primary.

I don't think we need new everything. I want O'Malley to run again, as well. I do think will benefit from some new faces. They are emerging.
