Re: "Here's question for any lawyers or politicians out there. If GWBush is elected, could he order the DOJ to halt prosecution of the MSFT and tobacco cases? I don't know that he would, but Gore certainly wouldn't." Lots of interesting discussion on Bob Brinkers show today. The general consensus was that over the years MSFT just hasn't paid enough bribes... uhhhh I mean political contributions... EP

RE:"Here's question for any lawyers or politicians out there. If GWBush is elected, could he order the DOJ to halt prosecution of the MSFT and tobacco cases?

OTOH, If Gore is elected I understand he will take credit for designing the first microprocessor! <G>
