The Democrack-up Party is trying to throw Mama Hillary Clinton from the party's train…

But who would expect anything less from the train wreck of a Democratic Party and the Democratic National Committee led by its screaming me-me Conductor Howard-Duh-Dean.

For the first time in eight-oh-so-long years, the Democrack-ups have a chance to regain the White House from the Repugnant-cans and at every turn they seem to be putting on their own brakes.

But no bigger gaff have the Democrats made then what they have done to the voters in Florida and Michigan who are the victims of party elite wrangling that has absolutely nothing to do with Mr. and Mrs. Voter who are about to be disenfranchised because of the idiots, YES, IDIOTS, running the Party.

Frankly, the party deserves to lose the election for their inside party politics.

When the liberal wing-nuts of the party get an idea, or latch onto a candidate, they don’t seem able to let go even as the train is about to skid off the tracks. It has long been the party’s problem to be a party in the business of ideas rather than a party in the business of reality. Take a look at how well they have done in getting their candidates into the White House since World War II.

So lost in their lofty ideas the Democrack-up Party seem oblivious to that oncoming train about to throw them off the tracks. They remain mired in the fog of unreality.

Here’s the reality: Come November the Democratic Party in order to take back the White House needs to win Florida, Ohio, Pennsylvania, California, New York, Michigan, Massachusetts…are we on the same track?

The only way to do that is to make the voters of those states happy, not disenfranchise them in the picking of the Party’s nominee so that come the general election the voters will  tell the Party to take a flying leap off the, well, tracks.

Party leaders so sure of themselves these days insist that in the general election those voters who were disenfranchised in the primary season will vote Democratic anyway. That oh-so-sure-of-themselves attitude is the same one that has party elders convinced that they will be able to count on the women’s vote and the blue-collar vote as they stop a re-vote in Florida and Michigan.

So why stop the re-vote? The left wing-nuts are scared to death to have one because the results might lead to the reality they don’t want to embrace: Hillary Clinton truly is the stronger candidate for the party come the general election.

They have chosen to remain in their Democratic fog  of unreality by Nix-oning  a vote in the two battleground states oblivious to the truth that their self- appointed candidate, Barack Obama,  is beginning to choke from the dust of the Rev. Wright dust-up.

And speaking of The Anointed One, Barack Obama - the man who yesterday called his grandmother “a typical white person,” and in his not so extraordinary speech on race threw the same grandmother from the train when he called her a racist in front of the whole world - wasn’t he the candidate who said he was going to bring a new kind of politics to Washington? Obviously he forgot to climb aboard his own train.

There is nothing new about a candidate who is more concerned about his own candidacy than what’s fair to the voters. It was Obama who put the caboose on the two-state re-votes knowing the results might give Hillary Clinton the lead in the popular vote, which might prove the end of the line for Obama’s nomination.

Now you would think that the African-American man who just gave a lofty speech on race relations in the United States would know something about disenfranchisement and therefore have some sensitivity to the subject.  But the political reformer seems to have had a lapse or two in reformation of late and appears to have a difficult time doing what is right. It’s as if he’s come up with a new kind of Wright, not an Honest-Abe right.

So all aboard ye Democrack-ups, right the train before it truly veers off the track. Start by finding a way to re-vote or at least seat those delegates from Florida and Michigan. Or come November you’ll be wondering why yet again the Democratic Party got left at the station.
