A priest and a rabbi were travelling on a plane. After a while the priest turned to the rabbi and asked, "Is it still a requirement of your faith that you not eat pork?" The rabbi responded, "Yes, that is still one of our beliefs". The priest then asked, "Have you ever eaten pork?" To which the rabbi replied, "Yes, on one occasion I did succumb and tasted pork."
The priest nodded in understanding and went back to his reading.
After a while the rabbi asked the priest, "Father, is it still a requirement of your faith that you remain celibate?" The priest replied, "Yes that is still very much a part of our faith." The rabbi then asked him, "Father, have you ever fallen to the temptation of the flesh?" The priest replied, "Yes, rabbi, on one occasion I was weak and broke with my faith."
The rabbi nodded understandingly for an moment and then said, "A lot better than pork isn't it?"
Agreed
I like having a wide field of good candidates. I think an "inevitability" train will be disasterous, and not because I think Hillary is completely unelectable. I think keeping the voter's interest and making the media have to keep shifting targets is better than ending the suspense too early and giving the media a single, solid target to pour their right wing propoganda on.
Vilsack in particular I liked having in the race. He doesn't suit my tastes, but he would keep the attention of some people who would see Hillary and Obama as too "Hollywood" or something like that.
ANd yet we still have Biden, Mr. "Foot in Mouth" himself.
