I was a Dem in 1970. I voted for McGovern, who lost to a cheating machine supporting Nixon. It was a very disappointing time. I haven't changed my principles and imagined at the time, I could be a life long Democrat. If not for the stupidity and ugliness that party members display at times like this I probably would have been.

If I were a life long Democrat, the behavior I've seen from Democrats over this one unfortunate episode in our history would be enough to let me know I had made a horrible mistake. It also reveals a lot more about people and the party who would go to these lengths to politicize something that is simply not political.

Zimmerman did what he needed to do in defending himself in a life and death struggle in order to survive a vicious attack. There is nothing more to it, and it certainly isn't a political issue.
