Well, I think they have a right to run it. But it will make me less apt
to support Sinclair in the future since I also opposed the war in those
days and dislike the Bush policy in the one these days.
And while I'm voting for Kerry this time I also voted for both Bushes.
For that matter I'm politically fickle and believe I have supported the
winning side in ALL presidential elections since the late 60's (yes I
voted for Nixon for some reason ;-) ).
But that possibly makes me something of a bellwether which is maybe not
a good sign for GWB this election. Or maybe my winning streak will
finally end.
