My initial reaction to this story is that it would not make much difference in the election. Having slept on it, I have reached the opposite conclusion. This will not change the minds of anyone who is strongly leaning toward Gore or Bush. But that is not where this extremely close race will be decided. It will turn on the seven or eight percent of voters in Florida, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Missouri, Washington, etc who are still undecided. And I think that Bush folks are deluding themselves to think that this story, which has been kept under wraps until five days before the election, will not have an impact on the relative shares of those undecided voters Gore and Bush will get.

JDN I guess this is the best shot they came up with for today. Two days ago it was Nader is gay since they couldn't get enough to jump over to Gore. another day it was Flint on cross fire saying Bush girl friend had an abortion. She said they never had intercourse husband threatened law suit and Flint backed off. I wonder what it will be next.
It certainly isn't anything about soc. sec. , tax cuts, military spending, education, he can't win on the issues so lets go back thirty or forty years.

Good stuff from Salon.com

I just can't believe that the American public would elect a moron because they dislike Gore. This reminds me of Jr. High school class elections... sad... so, so sad.
