21. The Devil's in the details.
Edited on Thu Mar-10-05 07:09 PM by Padraig18
I cut my teeth on Chicago ward politics, and virtually every office has an 'endorsed' candidate; you are quite free to oppose that candidate in the primary, and you are quite free to oppose your committeeman/-woman at the next election. Not infrequently do 'unendorsed' candidates win, and you wanna know something? At the next election they are very likely to become the 'endorsed' candidate.

No one said politics was a bed of roses. If he wants to be the challenger, then best of luck to him--- but spare me the violins and sad music, OK?
