In contrast to the rhetoric, a thoughtful piece. I especially liked this paragraph which I also have felt for some time: "Could Al Gore rally the nation? Maybe. Could he go over the heads of Congress and get the country behind him? Maybe. I think, though, that Bush would be better at those things--and better, too, at restraining GOP Dobermans like Reps. Tom DeLay and J.C. Watts Jr. At the same time, it's not likely that a President Bush would be able to appoint Supreme Court justices ideologically similar to those he says he admires, Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas. Simply put, he ain't got the votes." So even X should be willing, in light of the above, to criticize Al Gore for his shenanigans and support George Bush for President. If only for the following reasons that Mr. Cohen provides: "The first and most daunting task of the next president is not a tax bill or a Social Security plan but--as it was when Jerry Ford succeeded Richard Nixon--the healing of the country. I voted for Gore because he was the better man for the job. I can't help thinking that he no longer is." Thanks for the link Karen!!
