INTERESTING INFO: Becky made a big to-do yesterday about the poll that shows that 44% of voters would vote against President Bush no matter who was running. Best of the Web notes another interesting feature of the poll:

"But then the poll pits Bush against the five major Democratic candidates, and not only does Bush beat each one handily, but not one of them manages even the 44% of those polled--and remember, this is the same poll--who said they would definitely vote against Bush. Bush beats Dick Gephardt 48% to 43%, John Kerry 48% to 42%, Howard Dean 49% to 41%, Joe Lieberman 52% to 41%, and Wesley Clark 55% to 36%.

Maybe the Dems should give up on the nominating process altogether and just run slates of uncommitted electors next November."

Which, you know, isn't really such a bad idea.
