The Senate, today, is in the hands of the Devilcrats because of one libertarian canidate, Gordon Beeman. He stole the election away from Slade Gordon who was a solidly, if not perfectly, conservative Republican and gave it to Maria Cant(vote)well. He lost by less than 5000 votes. Thanks to Mr. Beeman, Jumpin' Jim Jefferds had a reason to abandon the Republican party because he thought he could find an advantage that would have been non-existant with one more Republican senator. Thanks to him, President Bush feels like he has to move to the center, politically because he has to deal with a Democratic Senate. Thanks to him a conservative adgenda has been thwarted in the Senate. Thanks to him, we are less free today than we would have been otherwise. So much for standing on principal.
