Well, the republicans are still running against Clinton. And I would add that they are doing it with a lot of success, and not much to go with. So I would expect that teh democrats will be succussful for about 12 more years exactly *by* running against Bush (especially once he is not there to defend himself).
The problem w/ your argument is it's not really a free market. There were compromises made and incentives given to companies so they would build huge infrastructure, and undertake risks that they would not normally take. Those companies used their position to behave in a monopolistic way, and were broken up by congress. The resulting smaller companies continued to use their advantaged positions to behave in ways that were not friendly to their customers because they had no real competition. They became comfortable in those positions and missed the chance to make real changes when they had the opportunity (and incentives), and are now feeling the pinch as consumers seek out other more competitive goods and services.
So yes, the free market does work, even when governments and entrenched incumbents conspire against it.
Absolutely, without a doubt, Radio Paradise is the best music station I know of. There is no genre, there is no commercial influence, there is just good music here. On the rare occasion that Bill plays something not to my liking I just wait a moment and he'll follow it with a gem. Often as I'm waiting for the next song, I'll find I do like what he is playing and that it fits perfectly with the flow of the set that he is orchestrating.
I give monthly, and I'm happy to do it. Maybe it is just that He has figured out that there is value in good music over good marketing. Make a quality product and people will pay for it.
As an educated Australian (as Australian's tend to be), I can tell you that... Steve Irwin, is a moron. He is not respected by anyone over here, especially wildlife conservationists. Even by people who have careers which bring them into close contact with crocodiles. He is despised by these people in fact. For the rest of us, Steve is just somebody to laugh and grimace at. If he is on TV I tend to watch it with the same sort of morbid curiosity that I might not be able to look away from a motor vehicle accident.
Well we have Donald Trump, Michael Jackson, and have taken on Russell Crowe and Mel Gibson from you guys (Gibson used to be better, it seems to be the locals that corrupted him). Every family has their crazy uncle.
I'll refrain from the name calling, but maybe you should search before you post. the first google hit for "turbocharger rpm" is this http://www.performanceoiltechnology.com/synthetico ilandturbochargers.htm and it says: "Typical turbocharger RPM is between 10,000-15,000 RPM at low engine speed up to around 60,000-100,000 RPM at full engine speed."
Turbochargers and superchargers are similar in purpose, but vastly different in approach.
And if you are going to be name calling, be brave enough to not post AC.

I used to have a "No User Serviceable Components Inside" sticker on my motorcycle helmet.

One day, he WILL be taken by a crocodile.
Once your done with him, can we have that Croc?
