Will we have two women running for President?

The Republicans and Democrats are the same people. Corrupt to the core. They just get their money from different interests.

I like Bloomie, too, though I didn't vote for him in the last election because I was mad at him over the stupid proposed West Side Stadium here in NYC. I don't know if he wants higher office, though.

Randall, I think you're right that women are harder on each other than men are on each other (the main reason you all are still the ones in power-- if we ever get over this catfighting thing, look out... hee hee. Kidding. Kind of. No, I am. Maybe). But I think if a female candidate really goes after the issues important to women voters, she'll get the votes from them.

Boy, these days I'd like to say you're wrong about the Dems, Timm, but I'm pretty disgusted with most of them myself. For the love of Pete, just stand for something, donkeys! I desperately want them back in power in Congress because Bush's spending frenzy needs to be stopped, but it sucks to think if they win it'll be because the Republicans are that awful, not because they're that good. Argh.

Though I think they're avoiding the Iraq issue because the only "winning" strategy is bringing back the draft and upping the numbers of soldiers there, along with forking out the money to actually pay for the real cost of the war and that is political suicide. Bush has created a mess with no good solution. And it'll be left for his successor to clean up. Kind of a pattern with him...
