Where's the beef?
This is less than I expect from a story in Salon. I was ready for mediocrity when I read the grammatically incorrect headline. Someone should do a story on why Democrats choose such weak candidates. The Bushes have a genetic speech impediment and Bill Clinton was only able to garner 43% of the vote in 1992. While the Dems should have had a much easier time with W, they chose two very odd characters as their nominees. This year, the Dem nominee will be thin-skinned, emotional, and wholly lacking in experience. McCain already has a great line in his stump speech when he says this campaign is about big things, not little things. If Obama is the candidate, McCain will add that this race is is about the Presidency, not American Idol. The Dems get what they deserve by not choosing a serious candidate. Where are the Bill Bradleys, Daniel Moynihans or Dianne Feinsteins? Where is FDR?
