But I don't know what would make me more furious: The DNC naming Keith Ellison its chair, or the Eagles wasting their first-round draft pick on Corey Davis, who has "The Next J.J. Stokes" written all over him.
We northern Dems are sick of Southern conservative Democrats, one of the reasons Obama was a breath of fresh air was that he was the first northern Dem president since JFK. Also, ever since the Civil Rights realignment finished in 2000 trying to get the votes of the white working class of people in the South is pointless.
Ellison is exactly the person we need in charge of the DNC right now, he's a practical Midwestern populist who knows how grassroots, door-to-door politics works.
In that case, it can be Andrew Cuomo, a Northeastern populist who is also "one of us" - a Christian (albeit a Catholic).
