I really hope I am wrong. We (non-republicans) have a real chance of getting rid of war mongers in the White House. I just hope it doesn't get screwed up by trying to move too fast. Obviously, most voters know it's time for a change. Just not that big of a change.
As for Geraldine Ferraro as the Vice Presidential candidate...When voting for President and Vice President, most people really never care about the Vice President. That year might have been the exception. Of course, Walter Mondale was not a great candidate either.
Isn't that the real problem with Democrats? They almost never put their best foot forward. Clinton was the exception to that rule. He was smart and knew how to talk to people. Besides him, who have the Democrats put up in recent history? Most of us probably can't even remember.
