Guest, I think you are showing me how unblievably young and naive you are.

It must be nice to know that new information, no matter how impressive, ought not be taken into the Gestalt. You stick to your principles and watch as good possibilites go down the drain with the washwater. And, yes, that is the baby you just saw go down for the third time as, gasping, as it went into oblivion.

In '68 I was for Senator Eugene McCarthy. No matter how many told me that only Robert Kennedy could win, I stuck with E.M. because he was there for us early on as a rallying point against the war in Viet Nam and Lyndon Johnson. Lyndon did abdicate as a result of that good pressure. Then Bobby was killed---and Hubert Humphrey was the pale nominee of the Dems. He lost!!! It became a moot point tha Bbobby would've been the one that COULD win.

That is the bottom line. Hubert Humphrey lost!! This political system, as age has shown me, caters to the POSSIBLE---and little else. One vote can mean an insane regime might take over----or stay in power.

I now can see clearer. Once again, as in 2000 you GREENS will cause a 243rd trimester abortion to take place as not only the baby but your entire basket of fragile eggs goes breaking and cascading into the tumult and chaos of George Bush's sewer.
