I must admit that I know nothing good or bad about Biden. I mention her as an example of how a moderate TV-educated (as oxymoronic as that is) Democrat. My dad likes Wesley Clark. My mom doesn't think Clark has enough experience. I told her that I like Dean, and she called him "that rich arrogant guy", and repeated the media story that "he doesn't answer questions." A couple things the Dean campaign might want to work on - those perceptions. My mom also likes Tucker Carlson, and she had never heard the story of the shoe. She knows Carlson from the Reader's Digest where he writes a column called "That's Outrageous". I mentioned that Carlson's latest column was actually kinda left wing. He wrote: "Though necessary in rare cases, eminent domain has become the weapon of first resort for cash-hungry government, a tool of greedy bureaucrats serving the interests of greedy developers." That sounds like a complaint about corporate controlled government to me, although true to his ideology he "blames government first" rather than blaming the corporations.
