I was referring to the two incompetent idiots that are running on the repuke side, one of whom will face off against Ms. Crockett or Mr. Talrico, one of whom will be the dem nominee.
While Mr. Talrico seems like a decent person, for many dems his making no bones about his christianity feels like a slap in the face. That said, however, many of these same dems will vote for him if he wins the primary and gets voted as our nominee.
