Thanks for the new thread Molly. I was just checking the computer one final time before I go to bed.

I'll leave the thread in the hands of the Night Watch Team.

Dean Tells State Democrats Abortion Rhetoric Needs To Change >

Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean told California Democrats last night the party needs to change its rhetoric on abortion to project a more mainstream image.

"I think we need to talk about abortion differently," Dean said. "Republicans have painted us into a corner where they have forced us to defend abortion. I don't know anybody who's for abortion."

Dean is buying into the Lakoff solution of changing the words to try to make their RAT positions more acceptable to the mainstream of America.

Good morning all. We are back at our residence, although I wish we weren't. It was a great trip. Much to do so will have to just check in periodically.
