My feeling about trying to make Biden back down is that of the two major parties, the Democrats have nothing to prove. No, they're far from perfect on minority rights, but so far, theirs is the party that pushes for them. Also, they've HAD minority candidates in the past - several in primaries and one on the Big Ticket as far back as '84. I am really appalled to see the Dems' own ethics used against them - it's more fucking Bush-Style Swiftboating.
