Reply #2: No, *here's* the political reality

[pop goes the weasel]

A lot of us would not support the Democratic Party if it wasn't for DK. As long as Kucinich can stomach the party, we'll also try to hold our noses. But if he bails, or is treated shabbily by the party, we are so out of here.

So, here's the reality. You want our votes? At least treat our favored candidate with respect. You don't think we're important enough for that? Fine, we really can go elsewhere.
