Now that the bleeding has stopped

And I've had a night's sleep, I am coming to the sad conclusion that the Freedonian was right after all, and I didn't meant to take shots at him or Desi with the prior post, i was just attempting to inject a little humor at the end of a long, trying, day.

Go read Sharon Cobb. She has two posts up about the Kurita situation, which seems to indicate that she knew early yesterday morning that she would vote for Ramsey.

Here are my thoughts: Yes, Andy Axel, there was a shiv in her back, but it didn't say TNDP on it, it said DSCC. She was betrayed by DC, not John Wilder or Bob Tuke or anyone here; hell, most of us loved her because she was the Anti-Ford.

Yes, Wilder needed to go, but not at the expense that it cost. There's simply going to have to be a better explanation for all who supported her than "I voted my conscience". Every one of us who are active in Democratic politics in this state who supported her deserves that.

UPDATE: Sean Braisted has a good take on this as well.
