ya'll ever watch "The West Wing?" Nader would be worse than Jimmy
Carter (a man I highly respect and admire but who was not able to
fulfill his
promise as president) as president because he has even less
connection with
Washington politics and politicos - he wouldn't be able

I,
personally, think that the impeachment hearings were the best thing in the
world for this country because it kept the Congress and the White House
focused on one another and not on screwing with our lives. I'm
PRO-GRIDLOCK and I VOTE ALL OVER THE BOARD!!!! We have plenty of laws
on the books already--Congress has outwork its usefulness. Congress
needs something more constructive to do than legislate. How to
maintain that precious balance of power in the constitution but keep them
off our backs?
