You are clearly also taken in by the Thompson jiving of the "base." There is no nuance in you, just naivete. You need to read more posts around here, to get the real deal.
I've read most of them. And I'm a native New Yorker, lived here all my life. So I've seen the Little Red Rudester from the git go. Hamill will win the Gold in Hades before I vote for him.
And you're right about me. No nuance. Nuance is for people that can't make up their mind based on what's in front of them. No sensitivity, either. But if my friends heard you refer to me as naive, and you were in the same room they were, you'd be deaf from the volume of the laughter.
No, Torie, PzLdr is not naive and YOU are the one who needs to "get the real deal". IMO, Rudy Julie Annie will NOT be the GOP Standard Bearer in '08. If he is, you'd better start practicing now on referring to Hillary Clinton as Madame President.
IIRC, you were on McCain's bandwagon in 2000. Now it's Rudy? If Fred runs, Fred wins. Even Pete Rose knows which way to bet on that one...
