I heard a few months back that because of his stint on L&O, Fred
Thompson has a HUGH edge

L&O ?

"Law and Order"

Good show, but that sure doesn't make him a better candidate, IMHO.

No, it doesn't.

It's scary how our political system works.

When one considers how the majority of people get their news, plus how the
public schools "prepare" them to evaluate issues and candidates, it's like a
country trying to committ suicide.

Personally, the more I
see of it, the more I understand and appreciate the Electoral College.

One thing I've done these past 10-15 years is to stop blaming "politicians"
and targeting more the people that put them in office.
