Ordinarily I would agree with you. But the Democrats have suffered from the strategy of going with candidates whose "time has come". Perfect example is in California, where the Dem nominee for governor, Phil Angelides, is a terrible candidate and will not win. But he paid his dues, worked his way up, started as Democratic Party chair, then got elected Treasurer, waited for his time, etc.
John Kerry--example #2.
There is absolutely nobody on the list of Democrats that have been around for a long time that inspires me or that I think can beat McCain.
Why not go with someone fresh. He's perfectly qualified.
