Sadly, I agree with you about his chance of winning. He really is NOT a liberal. He is more mainstream than ppl give him credit for. BUT, he WILL be brand gay and liberal. Sad, really. 

BUT, I hope that these dems do NOT go after trying to denigrate each other. Instead, they would be better to speak of what they want to do for the state. 
IOW, how can they help it.
