I think that a lot of "progressives" put a political con job over themselves. Anyone who saw him as more than a representative of the marginally leftish wing of the capitalist political establishment was fooling themselves. He's better than John McCain, but who would want "He's better than John McCain" as an epitaph? It's up there with "more talented than John Tesh" or "made cars better than GM." -- Jim Devine / "Nobody told me there'd be days like these / Strange days indeed -- most peculiar, mama." -- JL. _______________________________________________ pen-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.csuchico.edu/mailman/listinfo/pen-l
