Now hear this; now hear this. Wooten justifies my saying he is not all that bad a guy at heart & partially redeems himself. -- Nunn for President!!!

Today Jim Wooten's tells it like it is:

"Nobody appears saner or more qualified for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2008 than Sam Nunn."

In a 11-06-04 post entitled "A Moderate & Proud of It; Purple & Proud of It. -- Our State Motto is still "Wisdom, Justice & Moderation," & so let's not squeeze the moderates out," I wrote:

"[T]he truth is that if we were ever able to get Sam Nunn to run again, he would not run as a Philistine. He would run as a Democrat, and yes, as the moderate Democrat that he is.

"Would we welcome him? I know we would. If we would not, if we would squeese his out, then surely our Party has gone well beyond from being the majority to the minority party both nationally and in Georgia; it is on life-support and headed for irrelevance."

Of all the names that have been floated since Nov. 2, and acknowledging that there have not been too many for the unfortunate reason there are not many to float, this is the only one I can get excited about.

Thanks Mr. Wooten. Perhaps the nationals will pick up on your wisdom.
