    I knew it!

    Glenn, I knew if I read your articles, long enough, one day I would be smiling!! This does, indeed, sound like wonderful news (and boy, we could all use some of that!). I know it's too soon, but I'm still getting a little of my early primary excitement back, thinking about the possibilities. Ms. Dawn Johnson sounds perfect and I think Leon might be OK, but the best news is Jane Harmon getting punked. I hate DINO's worse than DLC members (what's up with forming an elitists clique inside of the Democratic Party anyway? I thought they were all supposed to be equal and not establishing power ranks). I think you know where I stand on prosecuting the animals, so I won't go further, but this might just happen with some more folks, like Dawn, in the clip.

    Well, love ya whether the news is good or bad, because I know you're being straight about it and that's as patriotic as it gets. Take care, compadre. (Thanx for the good news, though! :)
