excerpts:


Why would someone who says he's not very good at politics, who submitted Congress's first term-limits bill, run for higher office?
and


Carol Paul said the presidential campaign is a win-win. "If he wins, I know he'll do something good for the country, and if he doesn't win, I'll get him back home again."

Nice article.

re term limit, yeah, but term limit bills just bar you from running as an incumbant and he'd have been able to run for SENATE even under that. He essentially term limited himself the first time, then when he was voted back in determined the bad sort (me: McCain) had stayed and decided term limits need to apply to all.

I don't see any contradiction.

Carol Paul said the presidential campaign is a win-win. "If he wins, I know he'll do something good for the country, and if he doesn't win, I'll get him back home again."

And people wonder that he's stayed faithful and true to her for 50 years?

Overall good, though it does turn into a hit piece at the end with the earmarks thing.

[The Dark Knight]

I think this was a good fair article. a good piece of journalism for once.

I don't think that was a hit piece on earmarks, in fact they explained part of his reasoning for them quite well and succinct.

I love that pic.

[muzzled dogg]

nice.

It's nothing more than constituent service, which more than anything has helped him get re-elected. It's not like poses at ribbon cutting ceremony unlike some politicians.
