I hope it does NOT become old news. It points out some troubling business practices which need reviewing. If there is any criminal activity, those actors should be punished severely to make an example. However, ENRON will not remain news for the reason the demolibs want it to as that aspect (tarring Bush) just has no legs.... JLA

I was referring to spin from the Washington Postal, not you.

Daschle considering a run for president in '04 RAPID CITY (AP) - Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle acknowledged that he is considering a bid for president in the 2004 race. "I'm thinking about it, but first, I am concerned about keeping a majority in the Senate," Daschle, D-S.D., said Tuesday in a meeting with community leaders in Rapid City. It is the most Daschle has said on the issue so far. But many have seen his role as the highest-ranking Democrat in the nation as a good jumping-off point for a presidential bid. In fact, the South Dakota Legislature is considering a bill that would keep residents from running for president and another office at the same time. Democrats generally have opposed the bill, saying it obviously is aimed at Daschle, the only person who likely would be affected by the bill in the near future. The bill would mean that Daschle could not seek re-election to the Senate if he decides to run for president in 2004. In the meantime, Daschle already has gotten an endorsement from another senator. Sen. Kent Conrad, D-N.D., said Daschle's statement shows that he has taken "a very serious step" toward declaring his candidacy for president. "I endorse him today," said Conrad, who is chairman of the Senate Budget Committee. "He is the best. Tom Daschle is a remarkable leader. He's got Midwestern common sense and honesty. I think it's exactly the kind of leadership that would be good for the country." rapidcityjournal.com Message 17100658
