No, basically, you are wrong about what I'd like. I'm not discouraged by the length of the campaign: Rather, I'm discouraged by its tenor. I'd be both interested, engaged, and actually energized, if it were fought on the basis of issues and positions, and not on flag lapel pins, ministers, and old friends. (Who is more ready and able to lead is a valid point, but it is not being well made, and in fact is being misplayed.)
No, I'm not sorry about the fact that Sen. Clinton is still in the race: I'm sick and tired of the embarrassing and self-defeating campaigne the candidates are waging.
