74. I have seen...
... Gephardt speak eloquently - I agree with you on that. What I have not seen is a real sense of fight in him. I think he has "gone along" way too much.

I have to assume that if they are considering him, it is because they think he can deliver some key states or constituenciies.

I hope they are doing the math or something, because on its face this does not sound like what the ticket needs to me.
