While it includes most of the issues I would bring to the argument, it leaves me room for thought; that is, it is thought provoking. Now, I give a lot of columnists with whom I disagree a "thought provoking" quality; but in this case I agree with everything the author says. I only would add the thought that Adlai Stevenson's second try at the presidency should be a lesson to anyone considering trying it. In our state (Washington) the new head of the state Republican party is considering running Dino Rossi – the man who lost in the last election. Being a proud democrat, that works for me. I believe he has the chance of the proverbial “snowball in hell”.
