Kevin, I have to laugh. You blame Clinton and the Democrats for lack of a Healthcare program when the Republicans controlled the House and Senate for the last several years. Many of you are not recognizing the gridlock issue and are focusing WAY too much on just the Presidency. Again, the Markets prefer gridlock. Many think that is the whole reason that we've done well the last 6-7 years. The Markets don't want too much to get done because they lose control, or at least possibly do. Some have said the Market will get very nervous at some point if the Republicans control the Presidency, House, Senate, and even the Supreme Court down the Road. You say it's all about integrity but even Alan Simpson said on Larry King last night that if Clinton could run again, he'd win. That shoots that theory. Bush is winning because most Americans like his personality better and his one policy: tax cuts. I give him credit. He appeals to the most basic American ideal and he knew how to exploit it. Gore is winning on all other major issues, according to the polls I've seen tonight. I am not trying to convince anybody. But don't expect to convince me. Arguing religion and politics is almost pointless.
