To the people in Iowa -- just before i shutdown and watch you on c-span.
Because the tone is set by what you collectively decide tonight (for some reason, for a lot of people), know this before you stand in your corners and various other places.

I will not vote for the Clintons, Hill and Bill, in the primaries or general elections.

Here's a http://www.dailykos.com/story/2008/1/3/143020/2314/716/429493">link to how many of us feel. I do not want to see them back in the White House. Although Bill is charming, there are quite a few decisions he's made that have had bad consequences for us after he left office. NAFTA and its ilk. The 1996 Telcom bill allowed voices to be stifled; one voice may have been the one that caused us to think about going into Iraq. Triangulation. No more, please.

In my opinion, standing in the corner for Hillary is a waste of your time. She cannot win. Large amounts in her own party do not want her, so how can she win cross over voters from (R)'s and (I)'s?

There is real talent that can win. I'm for Edwards; I think he is sincere about his populism. I think Obama would be a real hoot. Biden probably is the one with the most experience. (Sorry, Hillary. You are usurping Bill's experience and you have no more than Edwards or Obama.)

I will support any Democrat who is running except for the Clintons. Been there. Done that. Moving on.

So, Iowa. Think about that before you go stand in the corner.

5. Any Democrat who won't vote for the Democratic candidate is a traitor
and a scumbag. Let me put it in the most pragmatic terms I can: We need Democratic judges on the courts regardless of who appoints them. That's of the greatest long term importance.

6. Then I'd say you were not a Democrat!
Some people can really be foolish...or even stupid. Be gone with Ya and don't let the hit you on the way out. Second thought....I hope it does.
