Imagine if Keyes replaced Powell as Secretary of State, how the world would change! Then again, he would have been quite a president. It's hard to imagine the democrats being any more partizan than they already are, so it's difficult to say that he would have been too polarizing.

so it's difficult to say that he would have been too polarizing.

I've never understood this. If you're going to be called "evil fascists" for maintaining the status quo in the culture war, or if you're going to be called "fascists who want the poor to suffer" for slowing the rate of growth of government spending, then why not go go all out against them? How much louder can they squawk?
