<p>Driver: for future reference, latte is no longer the beverage of choice amongst the Democrats. The new, self-preferred term for most CC Democrats is: “merlot Democrats”.</p>

<p>That’s pretty funny, but hasn’t Howard Dean seen the movie “Sideways”? He should be going after the PNW Pinot Noir Democrats. Gallo Hearty Burgundy Democrats began voting Republican decades ago.</p>

<p>Since I am one of the more - er - mature members of cc and like to check the box “declines to state” when asked about political affiliation, I am going to consider myself an Ovaltine Undeclared.</p>

<p>EK me too re wine. I love wine but it does give me headaches, and even makes me feel sort of sick to my stomach if I have more than 1-2 glasses. </p>

<p>Since I can’t be a St Emillion Independent, I’ll go for Glenlivet Fiscally Responsible/Reposado Socially Progressive human being.</p>

<p>
