The seasonal colors can and do change in the political world.
Take a look at 1964 when democrats were red (Johnson/Goldwater), and then take a look at 2004 when republicans were red (Bush/Gore).
What about 2008 ? Here?s the votes (electoral) that will have the say, unless a new state is added.
So all of the bashing and knashing between us sideliners today will have little effect in 2008. Headlines will change, and memories and attention spans will remain short.
