[...of J.Temperance]

The fact that we mostly all come up with the same names, just in different job positions.

This ALSO tells me, that some of us might be in the center, some of us might be left-of-center and some of us might be left-left...but the fact that we ALL tend to choose many of the same names, that says that we're ALL part of the Democratic Party, we're ALL part of the same family. I don't like it when everybody starts arguing and having bust-up's, it's upsetting because we're all in the SAME party.

Personally I'm a Centrist Democrat, I'm in the Center, but I've got a STRONG Populist streak.

Re. Senator Boxer, yes if Phil Angelides kicks the Lughead out next year...then I'd have Barbara Boxer in my fantasy cabinet, I think Barbara Boxer would be trusted with protecting Social Security...or perhaps I'd appoint her as Under-Secretary of State to Joseph Wilson.

Senator Boxer :yourock:
