This is about two dorks neither of which will ever get reelected or get anything
done because both of them have acted like complete asses since the election!


This election is not primarily about who will be president.

It is about who will be the Attorney General and who will appoint all the federal prosecuting attorneys. It is about access to Department of Justice, FBI, IRS, etc, records which, if the Republicans get control of them, will result, IMO, in a massive number of prosecutions for offenses which Reno et al swept under the rug and ignored. For Gore, it is about prosecution for his fundraising abuses -- bet your bottom dollar that if Bush is elected Gore will face prosecution. It is about a pardon for Clinton, when Ray indicts him -- Gore owes him the pardon and will deliver.

The legal system is where it's at these days. The main power of the presidency today, particularly with such a divided Congress, comes in control of the executive branch legal offices.
