  I've been watching & listening to the Boston convention this evening. It's interesting. I'm not a Democrat, but I guess you could say I'm way more Democrat than Republican, &amp; I'm moved by the "rhetoric" (if you want to call it that).
Jimmy Carter has a way, I think, of getting to the heart of things. In spite of his speech plugging Kerry & Edwards (just like everyone else has done, including Kucinich, whom I really like), he managed to continue to assert his platform, which is that of human rights. It's not a bad platform to have. People who talk about the "economy" without acknowledging the greater implications that policies have are sickening to me. Conservatism notwithstanding, I've been practicing your flute with the dogs. The low howling whirrs in the clicks a little.
