Would I have backed down?

No. If I publicly express an opinion that I truly believe to be accurate, then I will defend it, period.

I am simply saying that this Booker episode looks a lot like Bambi in the headlights and that he has some growin' up to do.

Sure, beldin, feel free to say that Booker has a lot more honor about him than 99.99% of Democrat politicians.

I just do not happen to agree with you NOW.

I recently predicted that Cory could beat Chris in the next Gov race in NJ which is why I thought Christie was entertaining the idea of a VP run.

There might not be a next time regarding Cory's attempt to voice his true feelings, as I do not believe that axelrod & co will ever trust him again.

I am female and I do not require forewarning about how my own side works, or how politics work.

This is the original "stand you ground" issue.

You're a man. So, tell me, no matter what the cost, would you have backed down? That is how Cory felt, that is what he said, and then he was pressured into a retraction.

IF you would have done that, then give Cory the benefit of the doubt.

He just learned the hard way, imo. No second chances from me.

But I respect your opinion! 'k

Cory said he was NOT giving interviews on the subject. Yet, he appeared on Rachel Madcow's show, and refused an invitation to bill o'reilly's show.

STRIKE TWO.
