Dear tabby...

The hypocracy is on both sides. You fail to see that I am annoyed with both sides and yearn for a return to more moderate and rational times (if they ever truly existed). Yes, there are Dems with financial backing, but never to the extent overall that the Reps enjoy. I am not a Hillary fan. We can do a heck of a lot better, but when one reads some other threads like the "bashing" one, we begin to realize that it takes individuals with tremendous egos and extremely thick hides to even consider a run for national office. Therefore, we do not get the best or the brightest....we get the egotists, the monomaniacial ones that have a personal agenda and not a national one.

If I could pick two candidates that would make for an interesting race, it would be Fred Thompson and Bill Richardson.

I also rail against the simple labelling of people as a way of dismissing them. "Hitlery", for example, says nothing about the candidate but a lot about the one doing the labelling. Bash the philosophy of the individual, not the individual.
