First off, it would be unprogressive to ignore a cautionary message from Keith Olbermann. He has been one of the Democratic Party's most respected "voices" and possibly the only honest voice in the mainstream media. I ask all of you to view this video:
I am not going to delve into lengthy narrative in this diary, partly because I am too shocked after viewing the video. It is possible for the first time in my life as a Democrat that I will not vote Democratic if Obama is our nominee. I won't vote for a Republican, ever. I will stay home on election day.
Thanks to Matt Stoller (openleft.com); Jane Hamsher (firedoglake.com) and eventually Taylor Marsh (taylormarsh.com). I say eventually, because nobody has been more astute about warning us about Barack Obama than Taylor has and I have no doubt she will pick up on this later in the morning and have this video clip up on her site.
God help the Democratic Party.
