I dont want to post too much political stuff but here is a thought
from a blogger that I have been thinking about.
Why do the Dems always nominate lawyers? *Lawyers almost by definition
cannot be good leaders although we have some notable exceptions in
history. *However, none of the ones they have nominated lately have
been any good as leaders. *I wonder if this is a function of modern
law school rewarding qualities that make for a good modern lawyer but
a poor *leader.

How about mayors?

Gail Jarvis
Big Bill Thompson
Richard J. Daley
Frank Murphy

SO, I guess if you are going to lump candidates with their former
vocation and that vocation's bad eggs, let's do it fairly.
