Since Jeffords turned Independant, does this mean all his supporters will do the same?
I doubght it, more than likely, he just alienated over half his original voting base.
That Seante seat is as good as ours in 04...

What's the difference between Jim Jeffords and pond scum?

After January 4th, pond scum will have a better view of the sky during working hours.

Actually, I think he has the seat til '06. He had just been elected as a Republican in 2000 when he pulled his switch in 2001. That was one of the reasons why it was so despicable, he had just raised lots of money from GOP voters, and run as a Republican, and only a few months later, he switches. Then, he refused to give the money back.

Allow me to assiss. There are two very good plug-ins for MS IE 5+. I use "ieSpell" to spell check my posts and responses prior to preview. I also keep the Merriam Webster Dictionary on the toolbar of IE. It's web-based, fast and comes with Thesaurus and Grammar.

Actually, I think too many of us have been spending too much time lurking at DUmmies dot com(munists) and have picked up on their bad habits of shooting off their tiny minds as fast as their crooked little fingers can type. They're really amazing over there

Please give me the details on how to do this.

Vermont is the home of Burton Snowboards,the largest and oldest manafacturer of snowboards and boots in the business.I believe their boots are made overseas and these dutys could be pertaining to boots brought into the US from overseas.Likely another effort reinforcing the rats efforts to keep our jobs going overseas.Very Clintonesque.
