Letters to the Editor

McCall - sorry, but no.
I knew, and I mean I just KNEW that the rightwing would find a way as they always do to continue power when they so obviously aren't wanted. This time it was to peel off the idealistic left again from the ranks. It was transparent and obvious and nobody who lived through what they did in the Clinton years, much less Gore vs. Nader or heaven forbid Dukakis and Mondale should have fallen for it.
It's been obvious that Barrack Dukakis can't win a general since super Tuesday. It doesn't matter if every single one of us switches allegiances. He can't win.
There is no way a Democrat can win with just the African American and the liberal vote. 40 years should have taught you that.
So, no I have no interest in putting my emotions and energy into a no-win situation.
Rather, I'm just going to prepare for the inevitable: 8 years of John McCain and a solidly rightwing country for the rest of my life.
And oh, thanks a lot. I hope we won't be hearing any black people crying (as always) about how hard they have it now.
You can count me among the new unsympathetics. My kids, after all, are going to have to live in this country - or what's left of it.
