Barry Richards?

[RobFromGa]

I just threw together a Jim Beam and Coke myself. Cheers!

[mystery-ak]

...pour me one....Im so disgusted I can't think straight.

[marajade]

Did you hear Doug Hattaway? He was Gore's spokesman in Florida. Another poster tried to say that it will be Republicans who will present the legal challenge because they will be questioning the law. If this is what the Dems are considering, I really don't think the voting public will fall for it...

[Wphile]

I just made a martini. Yes, I know it's early, but I am seriously needing one.

I may have to join you today. This is so disgusting. The DEMS ARE CROOKS, CROOKS, CROOKS!!

I'm thinking clinton is behind this to get Torch out of the press so the trial of the $$ doesn't come back to him. I HATE THAT MAN!!! He is the ruin of this country.

[hsmomx3]

I bet Al Gore is having fun with this!!

[Dog]

I was so freaking traumatized by FLA...I will never forget the players.....

GET JUDGE SAULS !!!!!

:-)

[Wphile]

No, he argued for Gore.

[Dianna]

Ok, the legal issue comes to this...the voters chose Torricelli. If Torricelli resigns or declines to run, since it is too late to add a candidate Forrester OUGHT to run unopposed.

It's the same legal issue which we investigated during Carnahan (I'm sure they looked at it), but declined to fight.

We'll fight this one, no problem. Talk up the fact that we let Carnahan go to be nice guys, haven't said a word about Patsy Mink.

[Miss Marple]

Cheers! Marinating chicken for the grill and making a salad later. Nuking baked potatoes in the microwave.

Dinner...voila!

Now, I wonder if I can get the floor mopped before the press conference.

If Clinton shows up on that stage, I will be making myseld a double, extra-dry!

[cake_crumb]

"Lest anyone forget the odius Lautenberg, try this."

Great link...unfortunately, Clinton is probably pretty popular in heavily Democrat New Jersey.

[Dog]

I need a smoke....gave them up 3 years ago ....but boy do i want one today..

[Wphile]

ROFLMAO!! Thanks, I needed a laugh. JUDGE SAULS!!!

[Dianna]

Ashcroft was screwed by the same kind of issue. He'll fight, I'm sure of it. This is too important not to.

[Wphile]

I had one earlier and may need another one. I quit 8 YEARS AGO but the Dems are driving me back!!

[Mr. Silverback]

OH SHEET .. Rush just mentioned that he would not be surprised if Bill Clinton fill in for Torch's place

RUSH ... THAT JUST AIN'T FUNNY!!!

When Rush started up on the Torch topic, he was talking about an email he received that jokingly reported that Bill Clinton had been seen riding around NJ with a real estate agent--a reference to Terry "Here's a house in Chappaqua" McAuliffe.

Clinton could probably find some Kool-Aid drinker to swear he's been living in the basement all year...but don't bet on it.

[Miss Marple]

I had quit but the Florida thing made me start up again. Now I am seriously into gin.

If we don't get rid of these Rats soon, I might be hooked on airplane glue.

[Dog]

Can you pass me the pack over this way...

[mwl1]

CNN reporting that Torch may not withdraw after all... may have been a trial balloon by the DNC to push him out.
