Hi, Thames. Since you're so interested in our political machinations, thought you might find these items interesting. The latter two offer some insight on the Senate upheaval. The first one I thought was just a hoot and right on.

<<Hague is going to lose big -- partly because he is such a dork. Nevertheless, it speaks well of British politics -- and the British electorate -- that an odd duck such as Hague should be leading the ticket of a major political party. It shows that the British still have a long way to go if they aspire to the shallowness and professionalization of American politics. It also shows a cultural tolerance for human diversity that is in some ways more valuable than the legally imposed racial consciousness that goes by the term "diversity" in this country.>>
