Yep

But yeah, that doesn't mean I'd vote for him.

Not Palin. She polls horribly, and for good reason. Even the dumbest voter has a conception of the Peter Principle.

Honestly, I don't see anyone that can beat Obama on the list - even if the economy remains stagnant, as it currently is. There is just nothing inspiring at all among them. Which strange and suggests that I am missing something.

That's what I used to think, before the daily show appearance.

Then again, I'm easy.

Did she mention the lactation thing?

Alas, no. Apparently having a baby and breastfeading while Senator is olde news. The focus was on the 9/11 responders bill (a mutual love fest between the two of them - I felt like a third wheel) and filibuster reform.

I do, but I'm missing the relevance of that fact to this discussion.

when I dated, I seemed to end up with women a bit unstable, more neurotic that I was/am. I think they made me feel more normal?

I'm suggesting that it is plausible that, had the surplus been forecast to be smaller, because of the dotcom burst, then the cuts enacts might have been smaller and/or taken a different shape.

Maybe this is stp, but:

1. No, the revenue forecasts still showed a large surplus.
2. QED.
