 This is going to both FORLE, and to the CC list.
 Folks, I ma beginning to have some real conflicting thoughts regarding
 the elections coming up next year, and in 2000. Not a day goes by that
 I don't get riled at the things which are coming out of Washington,
 things which are supported by the Republicans as well as the Democrats.
 My dilemma is simple, I am more and more identifying with those of the
 libertarian persuasion, but I don't realistically see anyone other than
 one of the two major parties getting into the White House, or into any
 of the Congressional seats that represent me. This being the case, my
 vote for a third party could very well put a Liberal Democrat into
 office, and that would, in my opinion, be disastrous! I am aware that
 this is a bit early for this to come up, but with the campaigns
 starting up after the first of the year, this sort of question needs to
 be answered. Just this morning, Ralph Reed was on Fox News Sunday,
 plugging tax credits for attending private schools. The only thing I
 could think about was that the discussion should have been, why the
 Feds are even involved in local education. Education is, or should be,
 a local issue. The State and Federal Governments have no business
 getting involved, and yet our supposedly conservative Republicans seem
 to like Federal control of the local issues.
