		<description><![CDATA[Now that numerous sources have begun to speculate that the race for VP is down to a couple of names.  Specifically, Tim Kaine, Virginia&#8217;s governor, and Evan Bayh, the Senator from Indiana, have been getting the most attention.  Even Faux news is getting in on the act.

		<description><![CDATA[In  policy content I found this debate largely droll and unremarkable.  On the question of what we can do about gas price increases, Clinton answered that she would look into it because truckers were hurting.  Call me an elitist, but you know what,  truckers are a dieing breed, and if the  government would stop subsidizing [...]]]></description>

In a post before the March 4th Texas primary and caucus, I wrote that she should drop out on March 5th.   I still believe that if [...]]]></description>
