My bride and I just voted in the Democratic primary. We both voted for Kerry. I was surprised by the large turnout, even at 6:45 pm. Just heard on the news that Bush is planning to target Kerry's record. I assume that means Bush realizes he sure as hell can't run on his record, not without diving into another barrel of lies. |

I voted (early voting) for a local Sheriff who is running for the Precinct 4 Constable's seat. And he is a Republican and a Captain in the Army Reserve (currently in Iraq) too! Troy Nehls is one helluva nice guy and is a Commander of the Rosenberg Texas VFW Post. http://www.votenehls.com/home.asp Of course around here the Democrats don't even bother to field candidates in most elections. They know better. Just heard on the news that Bush is planning to target Kerry's record.

I just assumed that it is payback time for Kerry who has been lambasting Bush for quite some time now. After all, turnabout is fair play now isn't it Herr Kraut? |

You bothered to get up early and go ahead and vote for the Republican, but the Democrats didn't even bother to field an opposition candidate? Let me guess, you'll get up early to see who won? bb It's the early voting for the Republican Primary Elections that I voted in. LOL Here's a picture of ol' Newt and Tom Delay with the OTHER candidate (Contable Hal Werlein) http://www.keephalconstable.com/Endorsements/quotes.htm Naturally since I consider Tom, Newt & Hal to be too moderate for my tastes I am going with another candidate -- Troy Nehls. ;^P |

Texas is either the worst or among the worst states in terms of
pollution, in terms of educating its youngsters, in terms of providing medical care for its poor, in terms of assuring equal justice before the law, et cetera, ad infinitum, ad nauseum. If Texas has such a wonderful economy, why isn't it spending its money on improving the lives of the people who live in the state? I've been to Texas several times. While there are a couple of places that are mildly interesting, and even a couple that are physically attractive, the state is a bow-wow. Being originally from Texas (Galveston), I'd like to say that you are incorrect. Unfortunately, you aren't. Texas isn't doing as well as it should in education, pollution, teacher's pay, quality of life, poverty levels, etc. I lived my first 25 years there and my last 24 in Oklahoma, which ranks below Texas in some of these same catagories (I lost my engineering position of 23 years last year after a factory closing due to outsourcing). However, I will say that IMHO there are more than just a couple of places that are interesting in both states. I especially like the variety of lakes in Oklahoma that I can put my boat on (attempt to stay on-topic?). Don J. (maui) |

I have pride in both states that I grew up in and was educated in and would hardly care to live anywhere else. I'm not joining anyone else's outlook. I would like to be able to say the both Texas and Oklahoma, both states that I love being a part of, are the at the top of every catagory. Unfortunately, we are not. That is not 'discounting a whole state or region' as you say, but rather stating an unpleasant statistical fact. I want and hope for better. Don J. |
