ROFL, Dem conscience? If you've actually found one with a conscience, please donate her/his body to science when they go to their eternal reward, because it's an extremely rare find. FL Dems strayed from party dogma and they're being shunned by the candidates. Strange way to behave for people of the noble character you describe.

50% right>JFK Speechwriter Says Hillary Will Lose, Barack Obama Would be Good President

October 12, 2007, The UK Telegraph

John F. Kennedy's former top speechwriter says Barack Obama would make the best president.

Former Kennedy aide Ted Sorensen, 79 — the closest living aide to the slain president — also said he believed Hillary Clinton would likely lose to a Republican should she be nominated, according to the U.K. Telegraph.

Sorensen said Sen. Obama, D-Ill., has "great judgment," adding: "Judgment is the single most important criterion for selecting a president." The Cuban Missile Crisis, for instance, tested Kennedy's judgment in 1962.

On Clinton, Sorensen said the New York Democratic senator was more calculating and formulaic than Obama, and predicted she'd lose.

"She's got everything going for her but a lot of people just don't like her," Sorensen concluded.

"The principles, the values Obama and Kennedy are enunciating are not five-point plans for new health care programmes, which is more Hillary's style."
