I was--well, not happy, exactly, but grateful that John Kerry oficially decided not to enter the 2008 presidential race. One less obvious loser for the democrats.
Then , while randomly flipping channels this morning, I saw Chuck Schumer interviwed on Today, whoring his new book (in which he promises Democrats can magically reduce cancer deaths, and will "never rule out" pre-emptive war), and swearing that Hilary Clinton will somehow win over the vast majority of Americans.
In other words, the Democratic machine is determined to throw its weight behind her, even though she's guaranteed to lose.
So we might as well submit all free will to the Republican overlords right now.
