Yes, you have the right description---broken record. That is why I posed the question early about whether or not AS was paid as this reads so much like an automatic recorder. Much like the solicitations that one receives at the dinner hour by marketers.

I can't deal with this.

Can anyone argue Gore is not a better candidate than Obama? Put Kerry aside for a moment. Gore I believe, running with someone like Edwards, could win by 15%. Kerry I believe would only win by 10%. Gore is the strongest candidate. But since he probably won't run, you've got to go with Kerry.

I believe Obama and Hillary would both lose to McCain, though Obama certainly would have the leftwing base enthused and Hillary would have a large chunk of the Clinton machine working for her.

Unfortunately, the leftwing base can't win national elections. In fact they can't win more than 4-5 states. if Jesse Jackson had been nominated when he ran (and he came fairly close) he would have lost all 50 states, just winning Washington DC.
