But there is one excellent one: Diane Fienstein is the best. I would support her above even my beloved Hilliary Clinton.
Leader of the Do Nothing Congress?
Know your California female Democrats:
Nancy Pelosi is the Speaker of the House of Representatives. She's OK.
Barbara Boxer is a combative, unimpressive Senator
Dianne Feinstein might be the most effective person in the whole Senate. She glows with intelligence, and is a rock of integrity and good judgement. She is like Richard Lugar on the Republican side - quietly the most respected person of their parties. Lugar & Feinstein are the toughest questioners in hearings because they are so smart, polite and unflappable.
The reason there is a do nothing Congress is because of the gridlock in the Senate where you need 60 votes to get anything through. The House can pass all the bills they want but if doesn't matter. Hopefully the next President will be able to get the Senate to change their ways a bit. Obama and McCain would be the best bets as far as being able to accomplish that.
I can't run no more
With that lawless crowd
While the killers in high places
Say their prayers out loud
But they've summoned, they've summoned up
A thundercloud

Great thread to tell my Rat buds, "No, Tarlam! is not lost!!
Sorry for this self indulging post, but shit, in the old days I woulda started a thread!
Ziggy messaged me that I am AWOL and demanded to know if I am in intensive care, since this is the only reason not to be posting. Well, I am! That Care is in the form of an incredibly beautiful (hey, you can't argue taste) lady that has absolutely blown me away; my life is a blast and I can safely say, I have never been this intesively cared for ever before.
So, there you have it. Tarlam! in love. A sad sad case. And yes, I will be bringing her to the Rats Gathering II.

Within minutes of exiting South Carolina, Bubba compared Obama's landside victory with that of Jessie Jackson's in '88.
Obama has gotten roughly 3/4 of the African American vote in the last two primaries. Obviously he is the black people's champion. There is nothing wrong with theorizing there may be white misgivings, and no harm in saying it if you are a nobody like me.
I believe that the criticisms of the Clintons voiced by the black columnists are groundless. The Clintons' attacks on Obama's suitability for office have not been a bit racially based, they are normal campaign positioning. But now Bill has blatantly played the race card. It effectively legitimizes their suspicians.
I wonder if it is too late in the campaign for Hillary to divorce Bill.

Nice!
