Nope, never expected it. This proves what those wise and neutral folks on NPR today were calling the media's fascination with triviality. (Me, I would say that voting is such an inefficient process of getting what you want that it is not rational to read up on all policy positions of the candidates, and you might as well focus on character, or what you perceive to be the same.) If I wanted to be a partisan political reporter, clearly it would be higher-profile. But that doesn't interest me much, so I shall diminish, and remain, well, you get the idea. -Declan On Sun, Oct 22, 2000 at 11:26:56AM -0400, John Young wrote:
