NOW THE SAME DEMOCRATS WANT TO BLAME PRESIDENT BUSH AND REPUBLICANS

Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) On The Blackouts:  "If it weren't for this Administration's obsession with giveaways to their friends in the oil business, Congress likely would have passed an energy bill last year." (John Kerry For President, Press Release, 8/15/03)

Rep. Dick Gephardt (D-MO) On The Blackouts: "The unfortunate events on the East Coast, parts of the Midwest and in Canada yesterday are further evidence that the Bush administration is inexorably tied to Persian Gulf oil and old energy, and is incapable of devising a comprehensive, forward looking energy strategy." (Dick Gephardt For President, Press Release, 8/15/03)

This is very interesting - just one name missing. I wonder with all Hillary Clinton's flittering around the country - oops I mean world - how many votes she missed? I did try to find it at the RNC site.

If you post these RNC Research Articles, can you post the complete title so that anyone searching will find them before posting. It will cut down on the number of the same articles as these Research articles can be a lot in a day which is why they were posted as a group this morning! Thanks! The title should have been:

VOTE WATCH: A SPECIAL ENERGY EDITION all POLITICS, no POLICY! President Bush, Congressional Republicans Work To Fix Problem, Democrats Save For Partisan Politics ________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Here is the correct link for anyone wanted to find the article:

Could you please explain the logic and reasoning behind this.

VOTE FOR ARNOLD -- GOP's Best Chance to Tank Hillary for 2004 and beyond!

How is electing a Liberal RINO going to do anything but give republicans a bad name ? I say Califonia is beyond hope. Their liberal ways got them into this mess. They need Ronald Reagan not Jim Jeffords.

[LibKill]

After what just happened (NE blackout) we have powerful evidence to support new energy generator plants and an overhaul of the grid. And the greenieweinies be damned!

I hope the Republicans in congress will pick up this ball and run with it. Pretty please?

[Republican Red]

Good job!

[PhiKapMom]

Hillary Clinton needs the CA Governor being DemocRAT to run for President! With CA being in Republican control chances of her running are slim to none!

I would rather tank Hillary than anything!

I didn't get this from the web site, I got it in an Email. I posted the whole atricle as it came in the email. Really no need to go to the web site.
