..snicker. love the "Daly" reference. Which party is it again, the one
that doesn't want to combat voter fraud? W probably would have won the
popular vote in 2000 too if you didn't count all the dead people...

This is true. Giuliani is the only major player with executive
experience on the Republican side, and they don't really *have* a
front-runner on the Democrat side (though Bill Richardson, the NM
governor who's running, might be one of the few Democrats I'd consider
voting for).
But hey - Fred Thompson's been a DA! ;)
