Democrats: Take Some Asprin, and Hit the Coach...your in for a roller coaster ride now.

Totally awesome...the GOP has a honourable nominee with great character, who has shown a theme of honourable compromise with the Democrats when its good for the country, and Hillary has taken Ohio, and looks like she could pull of Texas, pitting the Democrats into a looooong, loooong bitter battle, that could go to the Summer Convention in Denver. Democratic infighting is great for the GOP
