119. Bush had--
no brains and little experience, but degrees from Yale and Harvard whether earned or not, along with the $$$ of the Bush family and their corporate friends behind him plus the backing of almost every Republican office national officeholder and the bevy of Repub governors. And he was a 2 term governor which is a little more of a recommendation fir national office than being a Gold Star mother, no matter how sorry I feel for her. A far cry from the background that Cindy would have.

That's the trouble with some Democrats and recent history proves my point- you have to be able to get ELECTED! Moaning and whining as the minority is no fun anymore. And it wasn't when I was supporting McGovern and McCarthy either.

You are totally misunderstanding- I am not against Cindy, BUT we want to get candidates elected and an amateur rarely is going to win anything but maybe the occasional primary.
