Wow!
[Read the article: Showdown in Berlin]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]3-2! That's as likely as a 62-57 Super Bowl or 11-8 Stanley Cup final. It would still be stultifying, though. Sorry; I'm just a 'Yank' critic.

What?
[Read the article: King Kaufman's Sports Daily]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]"There might have been some boring soccer"? Yes, and there might be some vicious, ignorant Republicans running the country, and there might be gravity.

spare us, Heather
[Read the article: Will Iraq sink a key GOP incumbent in New Mexico?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]She takes Bush's money, loves him for 21 months of her term, then professes "independence." Another GOP enabler of this vicious dullard. Wilson tried to destroy Clinton in 1998 and actually wept in the House over what she would "tell the children" about Janet Jackson's nipple, for God's sake. It would be nice if she actually gave a shit about the actual rule of law and the carnage in Iraq. Scratch a "moderate" Republican and you get a Republican.

Tyler --
[Read the article: Will Iraq sink a key GOP incumbent in New Mexico?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Listen, Deadeye -- NO ONE IS GONNA TAKE YOUR DAMNED GUNS. This is a complete non-issue, and I wish to God people would quit trotting it out as an excuse to support the Big Tough Republicans (the ones who are afraid that terrorists are hiding under their beds).

Pathetic
[Read the article: Not such a grand old party]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]These goobers just can't admit their choir boy is a crook. These people are why Bush can never go under 30 percent, even if he was caught having gay sex with an illegal immigrant.

Hey Jake ...
[Read the article: Why is Bill Clinton in Connecticut?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]"Lefty-left"? What decade is this again? In any event, Joe being Jewish and somehow "caring more" about terrorism only works if you think Iraq is about terrorism -- well, it is, if you consider that it's creating thousands more terrorists. How does supporting this protect us? Backing Bush's insane disgusting war means you are tough on terrorists? This is utter bullshit.

Right you are, Kevin
[Read the article: "Miami Vice"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]It is bugging me also to see almost every review saying "This isn't cotton candy like the TV show!" There's no way on earth the reviewers have watched more than a few episodes. Pretty unprofessional, and disappointing. Christ, Crockett's partner got blown up by a car bomb ten minutes into the series ... his former partner was exposed as on the take, and the Colombian drug king who killed Tubbs' brother escaped at the end. All in the pilot. Yes, "pastel and sunshine." Geezus.

"God Gap"? "Whores and Lap Dancers"?
[Read the article: Democrats roll the dice on Nevada]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Where to start? This supposed "God gap" is mostly bullshit, and even if it isn't, is pandering to religioso goobers the way to victory? And this "lap dancer' comment seems to be coming stright from a Hillary staffer who knows Edwards is strong in a union state light Nevada. And of course, we all know there are only whores and lap dancers in Nevada; dese-dem-and-dose knuckleheads in New York; taciturn Yanks in New Hampshire, etc. Geezus. And as far as Kerry's early nomination contributing to his Swift Boat paralysis in August 2004, what the hell does that have to do with it? More likely the professional election losers -- the Democratic Beltway consultants like 0-for-8 Bob Shrum -- told him to lay low and not annoy anyone. Nice call.

Ties, NASCAR? Come on.
[Read the article: "They say it all starts in Iowa"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Geez, Walter. Will you guys ever get past this nonsense? "Can Democrats ever be as genuine as George W. Bush, the brush-clearin' boot-wearin' honcho from Yale?" (Who bought his 'ranch' as a campaign prop in 1999.) I couldn't give less of a shit about "genuine" this and who could go to a freaking car race and who wear a French tie. I don't need our 2008 nominee to say that the current occupant is a pathetic, hateful, arrogant, sociopathic piece of human garbage; we know that already. But you let it pass in 2000 -- and you HAD to know -- because Gore wore bad suits, or whatever the hell it was. Thanks again.

and yet ...
[Read the article: The Warner-less race]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]With all the difficulties of becoming President --- look who did. "Lucky" us. I can see where you have to be monomaniacal, but when did sociopathic, ignorant and dumb enter in. In any event, Mr. Shapiro, Hillary has lots of dough but no one in this party believes she can get within 20 points of anyone in the general, let alone St. McCain, who you people will canonize to a sickening degree the minute he descends from the clouds to annouce his intentions.

Yes!
[Read the article: Salon Interview: Camille Paglia]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Camille, you sure are some Democrat! Talk radio, Matt Drudge's "great credit," ignoring the GOP cover of Foley's crudities ... that'll show those Republicans! Maybe "our" party can make a 30-second spot slamming those bastards with Hadrian's Antinous, Greek sculpture and Plato's dialogues, as in the Symposium. Come clean, lady ... you're a wingnut with pretensions.
-
Yes!
[Read the article: How to watch the elections]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]The "Old Fashioned Election Night Channel." Maybe someone will come up with it someday ... like the no-announcer NFL games they did a few yars back. That would be wonderful. I'll be surfing madly on the 7th for results having trained myself away from the loons, hacks and Bush-worshippers that populate TV ... just tonight on MSNBC, Matthews, Fineman, Moron O'Donnell and somebody else all agreed that the states where they don't "love this guy" (Bush) are the states that "don't like religion" (apparently about 45 of them).

Nov. 7, 2000
[Read the article: Will the real America please stand up?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]... was the most tragic event in decades. 9-11? Bad. But more -- tens of thousands more -- have died since because of what the voters, media and Supreme Court did to Al Gore in 2000. I'll never forget that night, watching Nightline with Karl Rove and Karen Hughes, and thinking, "Everything we have aspired to will now die." Texas Republicans were taking over. It was like seeing death approaching. I'll never get over it, regardless of what happens tomorrow and in 2008.
