Probably the same person who'd call the next guy a "socialist" because he's not down with that person's program.

Not "dissing" finance reform. Never said a word about it, either pro or con. I'm simply pointing out…

Horse pucky. This kind of petulant whining ignores the fact that financial support for any campaign comes from the candidate's parties as well, parties which have no limit on how much money they can raise or…

Blue Tiger and Loki520,
We don't agree on a lot of things politically, but you both pretty much took the words out of my mouth on this. The system wasn't to blame for this. Miura was.

And the proof would be what exactly?
"He seemed fine before he left" doesn't quite constitute proof.
If Geragos has conclusive evidence that Miura died some other way than by suicide, he should bring that information forward immediately, rather than coyly letting it sit half-baked in the public arena. This…
