I think the most amazing thing about this whole fiasco was Stevenson and
his aides wondering how they could have the Larouchist thrown off the ticket
after they had been legally nominated.  Doesn't say much for faith in
democracy in the Democratic party does it?  You don't have to be very
imaginative to realize what sort of angry cries would have emenated from
the liberals if Reagan or Gov. Thompson publicly considered throwing out
the results of elections because of the winners beliefs.  I think Larouche
is a crackpot, and don't support him, but if you go around saying that 
democracy is the best way to run a country, then you should be willing to
abide by the results of an honest election.
