As the old saying goes: there's no substitute for cubic inches.

I was a Phil Gramm guy, then when Phil bailed, I liked Steve Forbes. Hell, I liked everybody except W. <br /><br />And he has been wrong on some major league issues, such as "No Child Left Behind," and especially his comment of 'compassion doesn't stop at the Rio Grande.' That one still grates on me. <br /><br />He was much like his dad, whom I didn't like much either ('voodoo economics,' and his dim understanding of 'the vision thing.'). Both of them were way too damn liberal in way too many ways.<br /><br />But they both were better choices for the Oval Office than their Democrat alternatives, sadly.Freddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10778430453468720627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4302795000497411021.post-3382313367708567762014-09-12T02:50:09.623-07:002014-09-12T02:50:09.623-07:00Ed:
