no, i don't think so. as grateful as i am for Sharpton's one-liners and
Kucinich's poisitions, i know that neither of them was perceived as a
'serious' contender -- not by the general public, and not by the other
candidates. haven't you noticed that kerry, clark, & edwards have taken up
dean's lines? i'm sure i could dig up evidence of kerry's shift, & maybe
john edwards' too, but i have to refocus on other things now. j-
