Isn’t that sort of like saying the clap is more preferable than herpes? (okay, just a tad over the top ;-) )
Shrum is a real piece of work to be sure. And your right about his record. I would ask you one question for which you may have an answer. If not, it’s okay.
Did Shrum manage one of the two campaigns against Bush? If so, I’ll give the guy credit for almost winning with one of the two biggest political losers our nation has seen.
I think Shrum managed Kerry, but I am willing to be corrected by a Freeper with better recall or more energy to Google the answer.
Actually, the clap is more preferable than herpes. You can never get rid of herpes, just control the outbreaks. My understanding is an academic one, since I have no personal experiences (luckily) in that area.
