>Word is that Newt Gingridge will run for President for the Republican Party. He has been criticizing Tom DeLay for his dishonesty. Remember Newt’s Contract with America of 1994? How about when Newt had to resign when he was caught and fined for his illegal activities? Bob Dole provided the money to pay Newt's fine. How soon people forget. Or is it people just do not care?

When it comes to politics, people talk about a candidate's policies, character, experience, etc., but I don't think those thing are as important as others do. I think that it really comes down to whether or not they like the person. I don't know if too many people really liked Clinton's policies or especially his character, but people liked him. It didn't matter so much what he said or what he had done, it was the fact that people liked him.

If you could go back in time and create a person to run in Clinton's place, with his same policies and past behavior, I doubt he would have been elected.
