This isn't going to be solved tomorrow. It's clear we are in for at least a week of indecision. The news media isn't willing to admit what's going to take place in Palm Beach tomorrow. We have Jesse Jackson showing up and it's going to be frantic. I'm hoping for Gore to pull this off for selfish reasons. Whoever wins is going to get "hoovered", so I can't think of a better fall guy than Gore, besides the Dems deserve it. Just think of 2004 and the changes that will be made should Bush win this and the economy collapses. I don't want the second half of the decade backloaded with Dems, so I'm going for Gore. Either way, Ventura will be a major obstacle for either party next time around.

Again, refuting me playing arsenna:"We can foster no dignity, self reliance, or striving for achievement if we treat them as perpetual wards of the state, people too dumb to learn how to function and succeed. Merit is not an idle concept, if it reasonably correlated to performance. If we want to help, let us help the disadvantaged to meet the standards, not teach them to ignore them. As for the right to life, how can we as a society survive when we condone what is arguably infanticide, and will not allow the government to protect the defenseless?........"
