		<description>I see in my absence around the premier state there has been an element of cabin fever involving possible changes in gender orientation. It is a long campaign but I don&#039;t think we need go that far - unless of course it&#039;s something you have been inclined towards anyway.

Seems to me a competition is in order to distract us a little and I propose we pick the date on which one of the two remaining Dem candidates announces they are pulling the pin. See, no assumptions about who that candidate might be, so it would be an even-handed competition, but that being so, contestants would nominate:

1. The date and time of day for the announcement (US time), and;
2. The candidate to make the announcement.

(Giving the time of day will ensure a winner.)

There are some key dates, for primaries, the convention etc., but I suspect those formal dates may not be when this event occurs

I would get a nice bottle of red to the winner, but perhaps others could donate a prize as well, if able to. What do you reckon?</description>

Cheers.</description>

		<description>MayoFeral- I was so pleased to see that the US made the UN accept the Khmer Rouge and Pol Pot as the legitimate  government of Cambodia despite the genocide, after having been overthrown by the Vietnamese. It gave me a warm fuzzy feeling.</description>

		<description>Sorry William, I&#039;ll add a *

I found a site with some excellent electoral maps.

This one provides guidance for Osama bin Laden.
http://www.lukecole.com/Electoral%20Maps/Maps7.htm

This one correlates Slave States with their Repug vote. Hmmm no surprise there.
http://www.lukecole.com/Electoral%20Maps/Maps8.htm

And I think we can all relate to where Dumbfuc*istan is.
