Any chance that I'd vote Democrat this year was lost last night by two items at the top of the agenda in the Edwards speech.

I was thinking, that if he had changed the word "hope" to "help", then he could have passed for any european socialist politcian... same control problem, where someone thinks that goverment is the solution to problems.

Its ironic, that when we are all thinking that what the world needs are great politicians with visions, then we get mediocre politicians to choose from - I think we have to wait 2-4 presidents, before we will see another great man/woman as president.
