Reg,I did read that story. A age of dangerous absurdity. As Churchill said, "Politics are almost as exciting as war, and quite as dangerous. In war you can be killed only once, but in politics many times."I felt that ultimately it was a draw, too. I keep hoping the Obama camp has been keeping its powder dry for a big finish but I'm getting nervous. It's kind of unfortunate for us that the economy is what seems to be the elevating factor for him. He needs to show us more. And I believe in the guy.
