Well, we are so screwed. I am so depressed. I hope the "anyone" crowd knows
what they have helped do. Why did we have to make it so hard to win the general election. Democrats should be forced to learn about the same facts that we learn here. Boys, what have you done?

1. Why are we screwed?
I am an Obama supporter, but either of our candidates will be so much better than Mitwit or Mclame. And we will win!

7. Well, buck up. Things could always get much worse instead.
In 1980 everyone cried about Reagan being elected. Then things got even worse in 1984. Remember 1994?

Then during the 2000 election a bunch of lefties started saying that Gore was "just as bad as w." That kind of talk helped get w in the White House and look what happened then.

I know you're disappointed in the choice of Democrats. But watch another Republican get in the White House and see how much worse things can get.

10. You don't understand either. I haven't said that anybody is as bad as anybody.
You're putting words in my mouth. What I am saying is the we are going to nominate someone who will have a good chance of being beaten. Edwards would have been a cinch. So now you watch another Republican get in the White House and see how much worse things can get. Dang, you guys are too much.

9. Might it be, because you've come to the conclusion that the game is rigged,
in large part by the corporate media among other factions and that the election by the American People is more illusion than reality?

14. Came to that conclusion a while ago
