I read this in this morning's Tallahassee Democrat and I thought it was very interesting.

My 80 year old Republican father ( who loves Dougr's posts) says he thinks Hilary is the one to beat in 2008. He said she will be president and no one will even come close to beating her! I was astounded! I gave him Hillary's book for a Christmas present and he said, "I did want to read it but don't tell my Republican friends!"

I didn't say he liked Hillary but he knows a smart person when he sees one! He will not say anything negative about Bush's intelligence, which gives him away. He doesn't think he is very smart but having all those Republicans running the country is fine with him....harpy
