Aronlu, I was so caught up in my BabyGate rant yesterday afternoon that I honestly hadn't gotten around to pondering the implications for the Supreme Court, which is normally a bit of a pet topic. You are SO right! Crap, but we're in trouble if we manage to screw up and put another couple of cowboys (or cowboy/cowgirl) in the Oval for another four or eight years.
We Americans love our cowboys, and I'm no exception to that standard. Back in Teddy Roosevelt's time, a cowboy wasn't a bad choice for President. But today, in a dangerous world in which America has gone a long way to aggravate most of our global neighbors, it seems to me that it would be a very dangerous choice indeed to send the MP ticket to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. Why, oh why, couldn't it have been Lieberman?
Other than getting back out there on the campaign circuit and doing some more volunteering, I don't know what else to do but hold my breath, cross my fingers, and say a prayer that we get it right for a change in November. I'm trying to suppress the very bad feeling I've got in the pit of my stomach about all of this. :(
