While researching some facts I previously posted in 2004 to buttress an argument another DU'er was making, I found the thread but discovered myself absorbed by other information contained therein. As I read those thoughts of 2004, I was overwhelmed with one salient thought -- it's so amazing in our Democratic process how we spot the plays of those who attempt to thwart the preferences of the Democratic base for a candidate or a position on an issue, yet we fail to adequately meet the opposition and quash it. The consequence of this failure is that four years later when we cycle once again through the same maneuvers launched by those politically opposed to us, we face those same plays and utter not a comment on the familiarity of the replicated pattern.

It appears you are correct -- you are a little cranky and I am too idealistic. Thanks for your response, and at least we somewhat agree!
