LOL. I laughed at your visual...I could picture the horses all edged out on caffiene just thinking of it, like they know there is a mountain lion in the weeds somewhere.
Personally, as bad as the RNC and the republican leadership (or lack therof) in choosing McCain was, the Donks leadership seem like absolute incompetents in comparison for their choice of candidates. The only candidate in recent history that was as hopeless as these two are to the Dems is McCain in a close third.
Then you have to look at poor Bob Dole. I appreciate his service, and I always heard he was a decent guy, but his candidacy was completely hopeless.
I heard that Bob Dole wrote a great letter to Scott regarding his book about the president. Hope we get a chance to view it sometime.
