From our office in Hartford, we Connecticut Republicans can only watch in horror. But life as an intern for the minority party does not consist solely of predicting the world's demise over the water cooler. In fact, I am running a cold campaign: helping town committee chairmen navigate campaign finance regulations, planning local television ads, and researching all that Congressman Murphy does wrong. Non-election years are the time for contemplation and preparation, when Republicans see the consequences of their defeat and remember why they even run against Democrats in the first place...

At the film's climax, the two go off to Vegas, again not to have sex but to do some "shrooms" and make each other giggle. Ben and Alison are the odd couple, but in Ben and Pete the movie has found its ideal couple...
...indeed the question, but Gore answered it when he said, "If the crib is on fire, you save the baby!" American democracy is the baby, and the future of the free world is at stake. A somewhat cooler globe will be uninhabitable if the values we cherish are on fire. Run, Al, run! Sheenu Srinivasan, Glastonbury, Connecticut...
