IMO the election was a contest between the people pulling the wagon and the people riding in the wagon. Mebbe. Mebbe not. Here's a thought. No doubt many of the people who voted for Dubya feel strongly about government workers, among other issues. No increase in government! It's full of incompetents and bozos who never get rated on their real performance, but just get raises anyway. Or get re-elected. Dubya--the epitome of everything wrong with the Government Employee. |

I'm not sure I agree... I think Gephardt lost out because of nothing
short of a lack of charisma. I don't think people were paying that much When Gephardt and Lieberman and other Democrats who are toward the central of the political spectrum "dropped" out, there was a feeling the GWB was unbeatable. When they dropped by the wayside, further left of center to dominate the selection process. Unfortunately / fortunately depending on one's political perspective, the DNC has not put forward a candidate who could pull voters from the center and right of center except for Kennedy and Clinton. Dukas was a "old style" Eastern Liberal. Gore was an "heir apparent" because he serviced with Clinton but move to the left of center during the campaign and lost the center votes he needed. No party can win the poplar vote unless they can pull voters from the other side of center from their base. Be too far to the extremes of the spectrum and they loose the cross over vote. |

One thing - one of so very many things - I learned in my five years of flying is that partisan politics does not fit into the cockpit. Most of my flight instructors have, I know, been to the right of me politically. Snip What prompted this outburst? Temper tantrum. -- Jim in NC --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

The democrats here couldn't get elected as republicans in Pennsylvania. They'd be too far to the right. I've lived in PA all my life, but it is becoming such a liberal cesspool that I may have to retire elsewehere. A Wyoming address would be good and even more conservative than here. No taxes. Why are all of the conservatives states in places that are cold in the winter? My grandfather always said that the cold winters "kept the riff-raff out" and I'm beginning to think he was right. :-) Matt Seems half a dozen or so southern states went republican big time yesterday. Seems the heat is keeping the riff-raff out also. |

"Cecil Chapman" wrote in message m... Stupidly, they nominated a guy whose political positions were to the left of Ted Kennedy's, absolutely ensuring a Bush victory. There were many traditional Republicans out here -- myself included -- who would have voted for a conservative Democrat in this election. But there was just no way for any of us to vote for a guy like Kerry. The moral for the Democrats: Don't ever nominate an ultra liberal to run for president again. I have often wondered how some people come to the conclusions that they do. Jay,,, for goodness sake you sound like you are a sock-puppet mouthing the words of his puppeteer (Bush - who was famous for the 'Kerry's just like T. Kennedy' line). Kerry was far left? How, where? If anything he was as centrist as Clinton was. You'd think he belonged to the Communist party to hear the prattle that is coming off of your tongue. Even democrats describe Kerry as being left of T. Kennedy. It's pretty lonely that far out. |
