Ridiculous. A party as out of the mainstream as the Republicans could never get away with that. The difference in the votecount would have to be statiscally insignificant for a scheme like that to work.

Also, you're forgetting that a party that's been as extremist as as the Republicans have since 1964 when they booed Rockefeller wouldn't even have any friends on the Supreme Court.

It's clear that they have a lot of work to do to get back into the mainstream. They should keep their goals realistic: Perhaps one house of Congress and some more governors.

The fact that the current gang controls all three branches of government impresses me not in the least with respect to the wisdom of its philosophy.

I think you're shooting a little wide of my point, Subby.

This place needs a bit more humor. Congrats on maintaining your equanimity.

Coming from someone of your ilk I'll consider that high praise or beneath contempt.
I'll get back to you on that.
 
Maria in 2008!?!

Interesting twist I heard on CNN. One of the reporters was talking about how Arnold can't run for president, so maybe he'll actually get something done because he doesn't have to think about a presidential campaign. Then, in jest, the reporter said something to the effect of "...unless Maria wants to run".

There's a thought -- maybe the Democratic primary in 2008 will be Maria vs. Hillary!
