-- I know a lot of people want McClintock to drop out of the California Gov's race, but if I'm McClintock, I hang on for a while. I say that because Arnold doesn't just have skeletons in his closet, he has a whole graveyard crammed in there and more and more of it is going to become public. If Arnold's numbers starts to drop as more of his baggage becomes public -- which is entirely possible -- maybe Arnold drops out instead of McClintock. Stranger things have happened and I think it would be a mistake to write off McClintock at this early date.

-- I only caught the last 30 minutes or so of the debate because I was taking a nap (and no I didn't fall asleep after listening to Joe Lieberman talk for 2 or 3 minutes). I can't say I was terribly impressed. All the candidates, except for Sharpton, were boring and I'm sure they must have sounded fairly radical to Americans who aren't part of their base. All this whinging about how bad Bush's civil rights & environmental policy are, the 2000 election, etc, just seems so eighties, so incredibly stale. The Dems are just not going to win by acting as if Bush is some kind of monster, because nobody buys into that gibberish except for the most rabid members of the Democratic base. I can't say that what I saw changed my impression of any of the candidates, but I have come to the conclusion that it would be a lot of fun to interview Sharpton even if I don't agree with anything he has to say..
