WOuld be, except so darned sad.  I already smelled the aroma in the wind
about the time of the BIll and MOnica saga and I recall saying to more than
one person "just what we don't
need right now is another eight years of a grade B actor."
we got worse!!!  A buffoon.

YEp, another Carter presidency.  THat institutional memory
thing again.  IT won't surprise me if Obama is a one termer.

THe part of it all that scares me as that the REpublicans
actually thought they'd sell SArah Palin to the people, and
came close enough to doing just that.  IS there something in the modern
republican party which precludes anybody running
for PREsident or Vice PResident that has any integrity or
intelligence?
I still think Barry Goldwater must be turning over in his
grave!!!


Regards,
           Richard
