    We're All On The Same Team Here . . .

    And we've got two talented quarterbacks fighting for the starting position. Fighting hard, even. But when the season starts, we'll need to all play together to win. (if you'll allow the football analogy).

    I was just a teenager back in '80, but this year is alot like then. Dems had Carter and Kennedy fighting hard for the nomination. Bad feelings at the end. And the winner was to take-on a doddering old foggie from the GOP.

    And Reagan won. Two terms, even.

    And it could happen again now, because Republicans can't govern worth a darn, but they sure know how to win presidential elections.

    So, please, both sides remember who our real opponents are.

    As always, IMHO.
