I’m sure most of you are in touch with reality on these two, but if not, there it is.
It’s been a sad primary season for progressive values, as the race winnows down to Hillbama. Edwards talked some good populist talk, but never got past his insincerity factor. Always seems to be a pretty boy mugging for a jury, at least for me and a lot of people who might be attracted to his rhetoric (kindly overlooking his Hillbama substance).

And Kucinich still talks a great game, but semi-unofficially ended his race on the eve of the Iowa caucuses when he told his supporters to support Obama if they couldn’t back him (just like he did in ’04 when he threw his people over to Edwards). He never should have run, based on both his behavior and numbers in 2004.

For real leftists these are the dying days of vaudeville. That can be read as a kind of hope, but many continue to suffer real pain while still nothing real can be done.
