George McGovern's loss had nothing to do with "liberalism".

14. How many campaigns have you worked,

in real life, on the ground? Are you a precinct committeeman, an election judge? Have you phone banked or walked any precincts with literature? Have you done any tabling, walked in any parades? I am talking about any campaign, even for a local mayor or school board member.

Have you ever attended a governor's day, or Democrat's day, in your state capital? Do you go to picnics or fundraising dinners for your party, at the county level?

If you had, you would know that Obama was the favored one, the projected nominee, even before he gave his rousing speech at the convention in 2004. He was only a candidate for the Senate at that point. The party was going to see that he got the nomination, come hell or high water. We all knew it, even before the primary.

Not all primary seasons are like that. Sometimes there are several strong contenders. It was Obama, even before 2008. Now it is Hillary Clinton.

She will win because she is the strongest candidate and the best qualified in terms of ideas and experience.
