WoW!
This election is officially going to suck. I really don't want to have to pick between McCain and Hillary. I really hope ANY other two canidates win the primaries. Go Obama! Heck even Richardson or Edwards!

Re: WoW!
I need to look into her more but I have some deep reservations after she started her conservative pandering crusade against video games.
What is worse, slight abrogation of the establishment clause or a slight abrogation of free speech?
At the moment I am inclined to say speech because the practical effects of including ID in the classroom will be real and negative (see Kansas). Therefore it would be easier to fix that particular bad political judgement. This is necessarily so for censorship.

Dean?
I don't have anything necessarily negative to say about Dean other than his emphasis of the Democratic position on the definition of marriage as between a man and a woman recently which seemed to be more of a pander to the religious right.
You are talking about Howard Dean I assume?
I am not really very well informed about his person motivations. By the time the 2004 primaries got to New Mexico he was essentially out of the race so I really didn't give him much consideration.
Stupid primary system....
