winning but thanks, I guess. Congratulations to you too.

This forum has participants and hosts that have supported every single candidate for the Dem nomination. Heck, for all I know there may have even been some Chafee supporters up in here!

any opportunity to trash black people and our intelligence.

We have always had a thousand words for folks like that. I'm sure you know 'em as well as I do.

That might be rough although I don't know if that's a case where A's fans hate the Giants so "the enemy of my enemy..." applies

The best Mexican food in the country is in Arizona (Tucson) ... actually, Nogales or Douglass (both, border crossings, 60 miles and 75 miles front my driveway, respectively). The food is great and $10.00 will get you 3 full meals ... and a snack!

There's a family in Nogales that has 2 restaurants of the same name less than 1,000 feet apart ... one on the AZ side, the other on the Mexican side. Both, have the exact same menu and prices.

Whenever, I'm down there I eat in the restaurant on the Mexican side ... because they give free shots of tequila!
