Potentially Ignorant Question (or PIQ, if you will...)
What would stop Max Cleland from running for the Senate again in Georgia in 2008? Or is he planning to? Just curious (maybe I'm just drunk...)

7. ga. is a very conservative state
ralph reed is on the ticket as lt.gov.but his campaign is in serious trouble,that said,my opinion is that when white ga. voters vote they are voting against blacks no matter what,hate to use the race card,but ga. is 1 state that hasn`t forgotten the civil war and they blame it on blacks,as does ms. and al. the only reason you see blacks or dem. candidates win in these states is that there district is totally democratic.

2. Nothing would stop him, really.
The question is, would the GOP Swift Boat his patriotism again(as they did last time)and would our party be able to stop them doing it?

5. Well, with admittedly limited knowledge of the situation,
it would appear that he was DIEBOLDED more than Swift boated (although a combination of the two may be the ultimate answer to his prior defeat). But also, could we stop THAT this time around... another good question. Wish we had some fucking answers though...
