The former were forced to concede that, as a John Edwards adviser put it,
the visit was a "daring move and great politics."

"Great politics", sure. Obviously it was great politics. Daring? Hardly,
and no one was forced to concede that point.

Funny thing about editorials, even those in the WSJ: just like the Usenet,
you can say pretty much anything you want.

Put pretty concisely and accurately, if you ask me.

But then, you didn't, did you.

I think dubya knows he's in trouble in the polls. If he were not having poll
trouble, he would not have made the trip. If this were his second term, he
would not have made the trip.

How?

By shutting down their access to oil and other resources.

???

What does that mean? Who is "their"?
Japan's. During the 30's, the Dutch East Indies (IIRC) was the main source
of oil and other resources (Japan had about as many local resources as
they
do now.) They were essentially "shut out".

Ah, you mean the Japanese diplomatic code. There were good retaliatory
reasons we cut off their oil and other resources, but that's neither here
nor there.

I thought maybe you were talking up some secret "revisionist historian
code", or something! :-)

Really? It was just on NPR that if the election were held today, not only
would GW take Florida "cleanly", but he'd win the election nationally.

This poll data puts him against any Democrat currently running.

sorry man, the obscure subtle invisible point was that you can
probably find historians taking even the most idiotic side of any issue.

Jay, for the love of honesty, use some reasonable rules. If GW is the only
Republican that has announced and is running, use his numbers as one side.

If there are elebenty-bazzilion Democrats running, add them all TOGETHER and
compare them.

You are far too honest and educated a man to post what you posted.

that goes by with no WMD. And he's still got a year to go.

It's different now. Terrorists are all Saddam's got. And what makes you
think they're radical Islamists?

Say what? You think the poll was so flawed as to measure each Democrat's
potential as a candidate as if he was a percentage of the whole Democratic
ticket?

I would hope that the NPR poll would be smart enough to ask something like
"IF Senator Kerry (who was in Iowa City today, BTW. His pilots -- but not
him -- stayed with us!) were the Democratic candidate in the Presidential
Election tomorrow, for whom would you vote -- Bush or Kerry?"

I would expect nothing less from NPR.

Clinton avoided the draft honestly,

He redefined the word "is" for us so let me redefine "honestly".

No, he insisted that the person questioning him define what he meant
by his question, and then answered the precise question asked. Which
is what anybody with two brain-cells to rub together would do in that
situation -- say as little as you can possibly get away with.

Lie, steal and cheat.

How many million dollars wasted harassing the Clintons about various
real estate and options transactions, without finding *one single
thing* to even charge them with? (And never mind the chances of
*convicting*; they didn't even find enough to file charges.)

All over less money that Haliburton pocketed from *one* bridge repair
job in Iraq, where they were awarded the contract on a 50 million
dollar bid -- in preference to a 5 million dollar bid from the local
company who had repaired that exact bridge the last time we blew it
up.
