But your wrong.

Et Tu Brute..

The difference between you and I is that I'm voting as much for Dick Cheney as I am for George Bush.

Whatever Bush may have lacked (and it isn't much more than Clinton lacked when he was elected), was more than made up for by choosing Dick Cheney.

Choosing Cheney was clear evidence that Bush put experience over votes. He KNEW that Cheney possessed little value as a political "face" that would draw votes.

But Cheney has impeccable credentials and contacts in the beltway on both sides of the aisle. Having him on board lended IMMEDIATE credibility to the Bush campaign.

Bush locked in my vote at that time as he showed me that he wasn't just interested in picking a running mate who would win the White House for him, as Gore has done with Lieberman, but rather someone who could help him RUN the White House and act as a close advisor.

Had Clinton only been as wise to follow the same course back in 1992, maybe we could have avoided many of the scandals he and Gore have put this nation through.

Lieberman has no special qualifications except as someone who lended integrity to a tainted candidate and someone who could clinch the Jewish vote.

The man who should be president is the man who can create the best and most experienced team for advancing the interests of America and its people.

And that is clearly George Bush Jr...
