I voted small yes.  Take that big chunk of change out of florida and distribute it over states where Kerry has a shot.  Otherwise it's good advice.

Hawk.  Social conservative.  Pro-Israel.  Middle- to Upper-middle, and almost always Republican.

That's a bad joke.  not looking to start a fight.  But, yes, rightwingnut, it's overall old-school conservative.

yeah, that's putting a fine magnifier on it.  Neo (usually new) is described here

This is a bit more old-school

You'd better see to your indiscretions 'round here, young man.  

Arnold was excoriated by the Davis people.  Were you reading that?

It ain't like that.  We need to get past our moral policemen, as a society.  You see that.  Kerry does, sort of.  Bush does, to a slightly lesser degree.  Neither of them are great presidential material, but we're stuck with Bush.  I've moved into the decided camp lately, to be honest.  Kerry will keep his seat as long as he wants it, you know.

don't honestly know.  In a nation of two-hundred ninety-one people, if the best we can come up with is Albert Gore and George Bush we must retool.  But it must come naturally.  I'm not one for forcing it--that's an antiquated game plan.  Capitalism rules.

What about the world dominance plan? You can not admire that alone. He was a ruthless dictator and a ruthless propagandist.
I thought he was jipped when TIME magazine picked Genghis Kahn as Man of The Millenium, instead of Hitler.  I voted for Hitler, and he came in a close second.  TIME did explain its reasoning fairly well I thought.  Guess I was just being ethnocentric.  Still not sure if Kahn should have beat out Hitler.

I stand corrected.  During the end of 2001, I was thinking about who should be the man of the just past century and millenium.  Time Magazaine, wrong as usual, chose Einstein and Gutenburg respectively.
