Arnold was the smartest person on the show - although Mr. Haney did give him a close run.

I don't think that has changed. She came from a well-to-do background, and has spent her life trying to make the lives of others better. She is personally very honest - and that's more than you can correctly say about many, many politicians.

Her daughter has been a judge, active in the community and doing charity work, for decades. Funny and cute, too - at least in '79 during the campaign.

Bravo SkoalRebel - Your wise words show once again how this country has lost its way since it stopped listening to the simple farmers, people of the land, the common clay.

LagunaB:

We had just been through the horrors of the Jonestown Massacre (I've never particularly liked the phrase "drink the KoolAide" - wonder why?).

Dianne did hold the city together. I worked very hard on her campaign for Mayor when she finally won - she deserved to win, and I've always been very proud to have made a difference in The City.

Is she perfect? Of course not. However, looking back on her lifetime of public service, she is as good as almost any of folks in public life. And certainly better than most.

Won't it be difficult to run a campaign and be crazy at the same time? It does not seem to have worked out so well for Angle or the (not)witch.

Eva Gabor libel!

When I was at the U of Miami we watched reruns every day. Good times!

It's a very poor idea to clink on that link! Orly's website is notoriously full of malware and other horrible viruses. It's risker than a two-dollar hooker.
