"Because it is a good bill, expect it to fail."

No, because it failed miserably in 2003, 2004 and 2005, expect it to fail miserably in 2006.

Of course, because politicians from both sides of the aisle are gutless cowards on this issue because of Drug Warrior demagogery, especially if they're not in a 'safe' district. Since there's no aggrieved victim class to pander to, the 'Rats won't touch it. And because there's corporate and law enforcement interest in keeping it illegal, the Pubbies won't touch it, either.

Imagine the campaign spots in a close congressional race if 1 of the 2 major party candidates supports this measure ... "my opponent supports making dangerous drugs more available to your children ... I will fight to keep them out of their hands blah blah blah ...". I'd bet you'd just love to write the script for that, rp! :^)
