...other way" is still a wincingly painful memory for Democrats: the nightsticks flailing in a fog of tear gas along Chicago's Michigan Avenue in 1968, the armies of the young hurling obscenities across the police barricades; or in 1972, the civil war inside the Miami Beach convention hall as the party broke apart over gay rights, abortion, credentials challenges, tax reform and the candidacy of George McGovern, who delivered his acceptance speech over the smoking wreckage...
