94. Great point!
And history has a way of repeating itself.

I hope you're right about Kerry and Edwards. I tend to think that they may start to turn things around but that ultimately the corporate influence needs to be eradicated by others. I believe that corporate influence and money is the source of the infection, and in that sense Kerry and Edwards are already infected. Even so, maybe they can see that strong medicine is required, but I have yet to see the issue of campaign finance be raised. Dean may have shown the way. I'd like to see a system that is democratic and inclusive and truly limits corporate influence. (But what will all the lobbyists do?)
