Reply #8: Any Democrat over 40 would not be so stupid as to get overconfident

[bluestateguy]

When I was a kid I used to get annoyed at my father's gloomy tone regarding Democrats and elections. Well, now 16-20 years later, I understand very well why he was that way (and often still is). He lived through Humphrey, McGovern, Carter (who almost blew it in 1976, btw), Mondale and Dukakis.

I understand where he was coming from very well now.
