Trial by Fire...

*warning* - This is another political thread.

I read an interesting letter in the L.A. Times about a week ago. Basically the writer said that whomever wins this legal battle should deserve to be President. Well duh, but why he said it makes sense.

He said that the man who can put together a winning team, map out their stratagies, deal with legal roadblocks, keep a good public persona and pull out a win deserves to be President. That person would have shown his talents in dealing with a very stressful situation and coming out ahead.

I liked his analogy and reasoning behind his thoughts. It makes sense to me, if either of these guys can get through this with a win they can probably handle any situation that arises.

What do you think?

We spoke our minds too clearly. We assumed fundamental rights were inherent not as pawns but humanz. I do not require a gauge for freedoms of speech because I never asked to be a citizen. I never have and never will pledge allegiance.

Florida is a statistical dead heat. Meaning, it may as well be a tie (statistically). It is not a basis of the vote of the entire country, it is an opinion about the outcome of the Florida vote.

we wouldn't have had to deal with the power-hungry wife taking over senatorship in a state she hadn't previously lived in if he was
