AWOL BUSH himself is now the issue. Only in your tortured fantasies, peabrain. Kerry chose to run on Viet Nam instead of his dismal ultra liberal Senate record and the chickens have come home to roost. Your continual screeching to the contrary won't change a single fact. The Johns are being flushed. Deal with it...

GOP Convention Delegation More Diverse 20-Aug-2004 GENARO C. ARMAS, Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) -- Republicans point to record levels of diversity among delegates to their upcoming convention. About 17 percent of delegates and alternates to this month's Republican National Convention will be minorities, party officials have said. "We've turned an important corner in some of our grass-roots networking and we've seen the results," said Maryland Lt. Gov. Michael Steele, a delegate who is the first black in that state's history to win statewide elective office. Steele says striving to meet census percentages would smack of a "quota system that we just don't buy into," and that the party's goals were "to reflect the ideals and aspirations of America." Eunice Jeffries, 34, a black delegate from Farmington Hills, Mich., says the incremental steps are important so "that this party finally sends a message that it's not just a party of elite white Americans." Democrats have criticized the Republican disparities as an example of a GOP agenda out of touch with minorities. Many GOP officials and delegates, though, say the increased diversity this year is testament that the results of some of President Bush's economic policies -- such as increases in minority homeownership and minority-owned small businesses -- are being felt by all Americans. The Republican National Convention is scheduled for Aug. 30-Sept. 2 in New York City.
