It's one thing to openly criticize the guy who selected you as EPA chief, and it's another to endorse the guy who's running against him. We on the outside place issues over personal loyalty/personal relationships, but for her to come out for Kerry would be the equivalent of y'all quitting your job and taking company secrets to a competitor. For most people, that's over the line.

Ross Perot might well have won in 1992 if he hadn't suddenly quit. |
