You haven't been talking to rank and file Democrats either I suspect.

It has nothing to do with race - it has everything to do substance and
a lot of the Union types along with the average Democrats that I know
don't see anything from either of the two front runners that will
cause them to not look elsewhere.

This could be the year for a solid third party candidate with money to
make a real splash nationally.

Unfortunately, that's Bloomberg and that's not a great choice either.

I generally stay out of political discussion, but will note that the
circus is a lot of fun. All the talking heads that were dancing on
Hillary's grave didn't just get egg on their faces - they looked like
omelets. Especially the MSNBC crew, who have been absolutely fawning
over Obama's speeches.
Funny as hell watching them call the people of New Hampshire racists
because they didn't vote for Obama.
Saw Huckabee say this morning the Fred needs to take his Metamucil.
All in all it's a hell of a show.

Huckabee is a charming man, a very skilled communicator. If he lost the
evangelical fundie crap, he'd be an interesting Democratic candidate.

Fred is dead.
