[Rhodes22-list] Happy Days ... (Political)

[Herb Parsons]

He "ran agains ... Bush"?? Wow, what's he going to do, oppose him at 
every turn? Attempt impeachment? Maybe besiege the WH until Bush leaves 
in less than a year.

He must be very proud running "against" a lame duck president and 
handily defeating a man "who has made a habit of losing elections". I've 
little doubt that this is what Dems see as "people of quality".
