She suggested she would infuence that in a major way. Now she will have to answer for not delivering. She can't go around pointing fingers to get herself elected without expecting not to have to account for her results. Ace's point is that she will, no doubt, use some numbers to try and convince voters that she did a good job. It will be interesting to see which numbers she presents and how she takes credit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28821987.post-33535122510953436042007-09-08T09:09:00.000-07:002007-09-08T09:09:00.000-07:00Earmarks are only part of the problem.

She will answer for her earmarks.<BR/><BR/>I'm more alarmed by Lord Cheney's Iraq project to feed his friends. Last I heard, $3 Billion a DAY?<BR/><BR/>What do her earmarks total over years? A tenth of what Cheney gives his friends each day?<BR/><BR/>I hate the deficit as much as you do. If you want to see where we are hemorrhaging, the pie charts are online.x4mrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05726002265345298344noreply@blogger.com
