...I have to tell, that's a lot like my previous one.

Bill Maher had Biden on his show (I think) about a year ago, when the conversation for some reason turned to the war. Biden told a story where his mother was praying the rosary for her brother, whose remains were never found in the South Pacific. One of his staffers mentioned that he thought her prayers were "quaint", to which Biden replied that if he weren't a US Senator, he'd "rip the goddamn Adam's Apple" out of that guy's throat. He actually said this on national television. When I heard it, the hair on the back of my neck stood straight up. My wife reacted the same way.

THAT should be the future of the party. THAT is what we need, and we need buckets of it.

Bill Clinton had some of this. Hillary? Don't know. She's too scripted and that might ultimately do her in.

Ah, but do you know who has this in spades? John Edwards. He could write the book.

Kucinich has it, too but people won't vote for someone who looks like Spock from Star Trek. Sad but true.
