Re your "Do you think that, in this environment, GW Bush will get nominated by the GOP?" Gee, I dunno. I think every Republican is going to have to pay dues for what the Party has done. They have lined up, practically to a man, with the RR. The only Republicans who have a chance are those who repudiate, in the name of fairness and for the good of the country, what the rest of the Republicans have DONE ALREADY and what they are STILL trying to do.

>>Jerry Falwell was on TV yesterday, saying that since Livingston was already aware of his own affairs, he never should've accepted the job of Speaker! With the RR having a stranglehold on the party, You don't even recognize the paradox in your own statements? How does an after-the-fact feeble criticism equal "a stranglehold on the party?" Clinton was not brought down by the RR. He was brought down first and foremost by his incredible idiocy, mendacity and narcissism, and by the will of a relatively small group of people who, despite their culturally bred fear of opinion polls, recognized that the notion that a sitting president can break the law with impunity MUST NOT BE ALLOWED. No matter how you twist it, no matter who you try to divert the blame onto, you cannot avoid the reality that Bill Clinton lost any claim on the presidency on the day that he decided that his personal comfort was more important than his legal and moral obligations. When he chose to lie in the Paula Jones deposition he set the path that this country is now following.
