I agree; one of the best thing about that event was the turnout.


The Democratic turnout was phenomenal, especially when you consider that
under the (arcane) rules of the Democratic caucus a voter has to devote
about two hours to the process. (The Republicans just show up and vote.)

The Republicans are going to get their asses kicked in November, and
they richly deserve it. The only thing that could spoil the party would
be a Bloomberg independent run.

I was gratified to see that Ron Paul beat Rudy Giuliani 2-1. Jimmy
Breslin called Giuliani "a small man in search of a balcony." His polls
are tanking in New Hampshire. He's toast, which is great, because he'd
be a very dangerous president.
