Wiz, I don't have a clue. I am saddened by everything I see in higher office type politics. About the only good thing that will come out of this whole mess is speeding up of a third party in American politics. Heck, maybe the black bag operatives in the Nader machine were responsible for getting J&G into a late night skullduggery think tank-- Naw, they were probably sitting around talking about how they could do it themselves. I do believe that they were desperate not to loose FLA. to the Vice Pres of the Clinton Admin. Pappy and Babs would have been furious--and I'm sure they never thought that every one on the planet would be watching everything they did--just a couple of calls to a few folks here and there to help tip the balance, not to worry, it will all get lost in the huge national election. OOOOPs. Lew

wiz, now you know why i refer to them as republicrats and demicans. they all want the same thing, they just have different ways of getting it. they want power. they want control. this means money and the power to make money flow where they want. i learned this very well in 1992. clinton, the guy who loves the poor, spent gazillions on a party for himself. spared no expense. i guess the poor that could have benefited from the extra cash of a scaled down party weren't really that important. i always said the republicans were more intellectually honest. at least the come out up front and say "greed is good" b4 acting like it. the demos say "greed is bad" and then act greedy. i'd like a moderate candidate that thought through issues instead of pandered to groups for their votes. never happen.
