Vick, what can I say... what was strident and far left last year is maybe a bunch closer to the middle today... it's all how you look at it.

Colin, the biggest problem is that desire to move the other way can become a mob mentality, and everyone ends up running to the extreme end of the scale, and we end up with the need to rebalance again, which means we have a rush BACK to the other end.

There are two trick to this: 1 - will it happen fast enough to get Kerry elected in November, and 2 - will it move slow enough that once Kerry gets elected, that the public doesn't over react and go back the other way within 4 years?

it is the question of 4 year versus 8 year presidents. I am starting to see that the Bush family legacy will likely be maintained (1 term presidents).
