SOROS,

I agree with you completely but we will never be able to convince a lot of people that Clinton and our country's reaction to Clintons transgressions was instrumental in the creation of the excesses. Never try and teach a pig to sing, it only wastes your time and irritates the pig.

All a big wheel. Like the economy, the moral climate expands and contracts, with the President setting the tone: Wilson-Harding; Nixon-Carter; Reagan/Bush-Clinton; Bush II-?

We all have a huge self-interest in maintaining the image, if not the reality, of Bush as a much more stalwart moral figure than Clinton in order to keep the nation from becoming demoralized at a very precarious economic moment. Unfortunately, we're on the eve of a mid-term election, and the Democrats with the help of the media will do everything they can to make Bush look like Willie Clinton, Jr., regardless of the national interest.

Sad. May take us to places we've never visited before. May end up being a tremendoulsy stupid tactic for the Democrats.

The unfortunate thing is that we have no one on the horizon who is Presidential material. The things one has to do to become a successful politician preclude quality people from joining the fray.
