1. Hey Tansy! Good to hear from you. Indeed I do remember.
I would like to dispute your last line

"It is more important, therefore, in my opinion, for the Dems to look more pragmatically at the general election and less emotionally at the primaries. That may be the first step toward truly unifying our side and working together to make real change."

only to the extent that that ship has sailed. Obama mania is permeating the atmosphere and I believe it has been released by design but I am not going to discuss that.We had only one candidate who could definitively defeat McCain and we, and, or, the Powers That Be, rejected him.The emotionalism of the primaries will determine this years nominee and the outcome of the election.Nothing can now be done.But perhaps your words of wisdom may be applicable to our next electoral adventure.Who knows? Maybe some are capable or learning, or at the very least learning to question what is presented to them.
