I stopped responding to Shep. He is to far gone and a response sends him further into the "zone". I don't appreciate spaced out people.

I'm sorry, what did I say to upset you so??? Didn't you ask a question, get an answer, and propose a wager???? Methinks you've gotten jittery! You've been reading the latest polls?

<snip>...None of this, needless to say, guarantees Bush a one-term presidency. The far-right wing of the country - nearly one third of us by some estimates - continues to regard all who refuse to drink the Kool-Aid (liberals, rationalists, Europeans, et cetera) as agents of Satan. Bush could show up on video canoodling with Paris Hilton and still bank their vote. Right-wing talking heads continue painting anyone who fails to genuflect deeply enough as a "hater," and therefore a nut job, probably a crypto-Islamist car bomber. But these protestations have taken on a hysterical, almost comically desperate tone. It's one thing to get trashed by Michael Moore. But when Nobel laureates, a vast majority of the scientific community, and a host of current and former diplomats, intelligence operatives, and military officials line up against you, it becomes increasingly difficult to characterize the opposition as fringe wackos. Ron Reagan, Esquire, Sept, 2004.
