Stan & Rummy,

This is really scary, I'm starting to think like you guys.  Run Al, run!
You could use some exercise anyway. Besides, Big Al and I have something in
common, we both like fast jets.

Now as to Ms. Rodham, er, Ms. Clinton (forgot she changed her name after
Frank White whupped her husband's ass), some are starting to refer to her as
Hillary Milhous Clinton because like Tricky Dick, she's smart, shrewd,
highly political, hard working, and ruthless.  Unlike 92' when Billy ran, we
now have the Internet and rummaging through their past is far more
interesting than the best novel.

Back to Al, I'll never be a worshiper at his Church of Global Warming, but
like most religions, I'm very tolerant as long as it does some good for
someone.  Personally, I think it's pretty goofy science but if it helps wean
us off oil, bravo - kinda like most twelve step programs. But please, Al, do
me this one favor this time if you do run.  Don't announce your candidacy
from your "family" farm with rented cows from your neighbor in the
background.  Bovine flatulence adds greenhouse warming gases.

There isn't a single heavy-hitter from either side in this race.  It will
all boil down to "feelings".  Stan, why don't you run?  I would but I only
want the office for one day.  Well, maybe two if we add so called Social
Security to the problems list.
