Which is why I'd like to see another party arise that competes seriously with the Dems and Repubs. They both suck. I haven't felt good about a presidential candidate they've had for awhile. Well, I did feel good about Bush the FIRST time around as the anti-incumbent in me didn't like Gore, but Bush/Dukakis---no, Bush/Clinton/Perrot---not really, although I did like the idea of Perrot being somewhat of a contender before he went looney, Clinton/Dole---no, Bush/Kerry---no, McCain/Obama---no, although I'm interested in Obama's domestic/economic agenda and what he's going to do about helping/protecting American jobs, as well as his foreign policy and how his troop withdrawal will affect us. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
