The Al-only-Al-if-it's-not-Al-I'll-swallow-hemlock attitude
seems to have dwindled down to a few remaining die hards here
so it's no longer as much fun doing battle with the Gorestapo.

But since you asked we will review the one towering overiding
principle of Al-only-Alism :

Al is always a victim.

So when Al shows up for three Presidential debates with a different
personality for each one it's not Al's fault - that was forced on
him by the media.

So when Al frittered away not only his own state but the eternally
Democratic state of West Virginia either one of which would have
given him the election and spared us the war-mongering little
insect who occupies the White House it's not Als fault it's the
Karl Rove smear machine.

When Al allows a tenant on his property to live in a condition
befitting a sharecropper when he could have easily fixed up the
property before it became an emabarrassment in the middle of the
campaign it's just one of those Republican talking points.

And when Al quits the '04 race because he can't attract fatcat
contributors who are willing to pay to crank up the Naomi Wolf
makeover machine one more time it not Al's fault it's the DLC
who feared that Al was going to sweep into the White House and
institute a dictatorship of the proletariat.

It's never Al - he's always the victim.

And for those who miss my Tilden picture.

Reelect Samuel Tilden in '04 - I'm still not over 1876
