What a pitiful state of political affairs...gore picks Lieberman to make himself look more attractive...

and this is being done because he feels threatened by shrub? The knock on Bush was that he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, and now his son, who was born with a silver spoon in his nose...and an instant 40 million dollar warchest...is a threat to the peoples candidate? Let me tell you, gore ain't that candidate...

Build a party, Build it around a platform, Build it to serve a constituency that has structure and can deliver votes when needed...Build it as a non electoral party, until it reaches substantial numbers...

Until then, do like I will do, vote for Ralph Nader, who has done more for the American people from outside the halls of power, than any politician of recent times...

And to our new mudcat friend, who thinks that the center is bigger than the left or right...the center is the target for the Bush Gore crowd, and they don't care if it is 2 voters, or 45 million voters...the real political power will come to the party that can invigorate the people who are around 60% of potential voters who have decided the current candidates aren't worth their time. I just left the primary election party in my community, 1200 people voted, out of 10,000 potential...I know who the candidates ought to be courting....
