"Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) said Sunday that if he's elected,  
Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson would be 'involved' in the new  
administration's transition -- a very unusual move when the White  
House changes parties ... Obama's announcement can be expected to  
reassure the business community, which initially had been worried  
about Obama's plans to raise the tax on capital gains. But he has now  
said he would raise it much less than some had feared. Obama has also  
indicated he might retain Defense Secretary Robert Gates as part of  
an effort to send a bipartisan signal at the start of his presidency."

That's....um, change I can believe in?  Whomever wins out of the two  
major candidates, America loses.

/awaits the McCain boogeyman argument accompanying statements of  
those who won't hold their nose and vote O-bomb-a.

Its not the act of seeing with our own eyes alone; its correctly  
comprehending what we see,

  We absolutely have to refuse to attribute any kind of permanency to  
that which is simply because it is.
[angela v. davis, 1944-]

Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could.  
Some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as  
you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it serenely and with  
too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.
