Democrat Lament

I didn't vote for Hillary or Obama in the California primary, I voted for someone else. I suppose my second choice would have been Hillary. Today I watched this noble woman give a speech to support a candidate she cited over and over again for the last year and a half as unfit to be president. Typical. We saw this in 2004, and every four years going back to who knows when-for the good of the party. I have to question my party, when they give "super delegates" the right to choose for me the nominee. The "evil" Republicans don't have such a rule.

I have to admit, I grew up in a time when people distrusted the government, but didn't define each other as anti-American and evil simply because they were Republican or Democrat...after all, those are political parties, but we are all Americans.

Back to the present, I want to know why the Democratic Party decided to punish two states by holding back half the delegates? I know people talk about Gore getting cheated out of being President, and I actually believe that, going back to distrust the government...I think the voting machines were rigged...but for crying out loud, even though I didn't vote for her, I think Mrs. Clinton was cheated by her own party. My party. How is that supposed to make me feel, that my party, the one I was so eager to join 40 years ago, just took a big dump on a woman who actually might have gotten elected President...
So, much to the chagrin of some, I will vote for someone else
