when I really started to sit up and SERIOUSLY pay attention, though I had always voted Dem.

When I went to see Fahrenheit 9/11 in the theater and I saw that scene in the senate when Gore had to preside over the results of the Supreme Court selection, that's when it hit me really hard. I swear that one scene started the tears flowing for thinking of what could have been, what could have been....
