Maybe, Deacon, but McClellan at

Maybe, Deacon, but McClellan at least fought for a while before throwing in the towel! Your observation points out another of the Democrats’ problems, however. While the party’s elders would like to nominate anyone other than Al Gore, the reality is that the only candidate who currently shows significant support in the polls other than Gore is Hillary Clinton. The others, like Daschle, generally trail Al Sharpton. Of course, two years is forever in politics. But at some point, Daschle, Edwards or someone has to start showing some traction.
