how does Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy Jr. sound?
that's my dream. a real Attorney General to crack down on corperate crime and the violation of laws; labor and environmental.

i'm just daydreaming here, felt like putting the idea out. think we could petition John Kerry to nominate him when the time comes?

3. Not nearly as good as AG Eliot Spitzer
Sorry, but an inexperienced pretty boy just won't do the trick. We need a tough old bird with a track record of going against the rich, the powerful, and the well connected. Eliot Spitzer has been doing the SECs work for it since that organization became thoroughly corrupted by money and the revolving door policy. We need him.

13. Why is this a necessary comparison? I miss the humor and don't think it is
cool to either slam our own or compare them to Bush in anyway!

12. Richard Blumenthal
He's been the Attorney General of Connecticut for the past 16 or 20 years. He's extremely committed and has fought tirelessly for the electorate and has won huge settlements from the tobacco companies.

He would have run for the Senate if Holy Joe hadn't stood in his way. If Gore/Lieberman had not been robbed of the Presidency and Veep slots, Blumenthal would have swept a special Senate race in a landslide.

15. "Crimes Against Nature" is the most powerful indictment of bush that
I've read. I'm about halfway through it. Page after page is filled with one outrage after another. If you are going to read the book and are easily agitated, you might want to take a sedative beforehand. Robert Kennedy Jr. is a true American hero.
