That's pretty melodramatic. I'm waiting for the organ music in the background.

It's pretty basic election 101 stuff that during primaries, candidates have to appeal to the radical base, and during general elections, they try to shoot toward the center. When they actually get elected, they do nice things for the base, but it rarely results in any legislation for them. The Clintons did/are doing it, McCain is probably doing it...Obama might actually stick through with pork for the radical base, and that worries me more than a little.



Place me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm; for love is as strong as death, its jealousy unyielding as the grave. It burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame. -- Song 8:6
