RESEARCHING HOWARD DEAN, PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE

That's nice, Sofia!

Tartarin: You mean it's for guys who can't afford a corvette?

I dunno, Max. Is yours a 'vette?

I am one of those mythical creatures, a male who is secure in his masculinity, thereby eliminating the need to enlist or buy a shiny car.

Nice to meet 'ya!

Maple -- I just got that email too. He appeals for more money. I've send him even more than I can afford and am considering another tiny contribution because the idea that a candidate is getting many small donations rather than a few big ones really appeals to me!

HERE'S SOMETHING INTERESTING!! Dean is way ahead of other candidates....:

Dean's Closing Statement from tonight's debate

To anyone and everyone who saw or heard tonight - what was your impression? (I did not.) I still think Sharpton is going to be an influenec.

I'd like you to explain all that "insecurity" stuff to about a battalion of enlisted Army Rangers.

Rah Dean, the only one who makes any sense to me at this point, PDiddie.

Dean does the same for me, Tartarin. I like his personal style and his combativeness if you can call it that. Just tired of Dems sitting back and letting everything just slide away. Two articles in the NYTimes caught my eye this morning, "Wake Up Democrats: 2004 Isn't 1992 by Adam Nagourney... http://www.nytimes.com/2003/05/04/weekinreview/04NAGO.html
and another:"Democrats' First Presidential Debate Shows Party Fissures" also by Adam Nagourney http://www.nytimes.com/2003/05/04/politics/campaigns/04DEBA.html

After reading that the jobless rate climbed to 6% in April from 5.8% in March, states are floundering in red ink, schools everywhere don't have money, I wonder...doesn't this hit more people than the Bush people are counting on to vote for them. Does the fear of WMD in Iraq that caused this dirty war and now the lack thereof cause anyone to question the motives for taxcuts and more taxcuts for the rich?

The right wing seems to think that all they have to do is show the CIC landing on an aircraft carrier and declaring a nominal victory and the American people will be soothed into some sort of dullminded security. This is the scary part for me.

I think the Dems have a chance with all that is happening domestically and I sure hope its Dean or Kerry. Tartarin, he does look like he has a bean up his nose, but we gotta have a strong guy!

There is a great article about Graham in the Washington Post Sunday Magazine. Maybe Veep material?

We're on the same wave length, VNN -- Graham is my other favorite.
