Moses: "On that "political compass" website I'm slightly left of center with a strong libertarian streak. I find the Kerry/Edwards ticket thoroughly nauseating. Is this the best the Dems can do?"

Sadly, it seems so. If the Republicans had put somebody tolerable up in 2000, I'd have been tempted. McCain would have gotten my vote in a heartbeat. I sensed real integrity there.

Even in '92, Clinton was something like 7th choice for me, although I think he did a great job, I'm sure any number of possible candidates would have done better.

Since Carter, the election has been more about charisma and sound bites and less abut substance. Sad, really.

I heard a young woman interviewed on the radio the other day, saying Edwards was inspiring her 20-something girl friends to register because he is so 'cute.' God help us.
