We were "force fed" this ersatz candidate by the media consortium and by anti-Clinton Democrats, salivating at the prospect of destroying the Clintons and their potential extended legacy. Alas, we have as our standard bearer an ill-equipped piece of hype - good at reading tel-prompters and at inflecting his voice at the right time so as to stir the emotional viscera of willing throngs of acolytes and dreamers. Ironically, we wind up with the only Democrat that can possibly lose what was an almost "guaranteed election." While the repugnant and mostly untrue attempts to portray Obama in the worst way and simultaneously capitalize on the ignorance and prejudice of many voters is an ugly comment about the "opposing party' and its' followers, we are getting our just deserts for acquiescing to the wrong choice as our Presidential Candidate.
