Boxer Has Balls
Why President Boxer?
Republicans feel free to create their own realities, so why can't I? And in my idealized reality, Senator Barbara Boxer is the President of the United States.
She's a true liberal, she does her homework and, unlike the weenie-dems in the Senate and House, she has the courage of her convictions.
Barbara Boxer's actions throughout the Ohio vote and Condi Rice hearings are more than enough to earn my support. Moreover, Boxer puts her fellow democrats to shame.
On second thought, the weenie-dems put themselves to shame.
If you too fantasize about Boxer in 2008 and would like to join this blog, please email me @ madkane@madkane.com -- subject line: Boxer Has Balls.
Or if you prefer, post a "join the President Boxer Blog" request in the comments to this post.
Thanks!

I am not sure I can go for the Boxer for President thing, but, she HAS in fact shown that she has more balls that many democrats in the Congress...
Viva the Boxer!
Viva the Boxer!
Had a post today titled Boxer for President. I'm ready for a Democrat with "balls", or should we say convictions.
Ha. Last night I wrote, "If there isn't already a site on the Internet devoted to pushing Senator Barbara Boxer to run for President in 2008, then you can bet my blog will be pursuing that goal, as well."
So sign me up, MK!

She cried during Rep. Stephanie Tubbs Jones reading of her opposition to the certification of Ohio's votes. That went a long way with me because I cry a little every time I realize that we've been disenfranchised. If Boxer is going to fight for us to get the vote back, then count me in and sign me up. Hail to the Chief.
Thanks so much eRobin and Moi. And eRobin, I'll be happy to sign you up so you can post here, but I need your email address to send you an invitation. (I clicked on your profile, but it wasn't accessible to the public.)
So eRobin, please send me an email request and I'll send you an invitation to join. And the same to you, Moi, if Dean is otherwise engaged and you'd like to join us.

Loyopp, my understanding is that VP Gore asked the Senators not to step forward on his behalf. (I think Gore made a mistake in doing so, but that's a different conversation.)
As for your question, "Did she take a step forward or did the other Democratic Senators take a step back?"
I'd have to say both.

In the past, I was never much impressed with Boxer, who seemed like just another wet liberal. But, her recent performances do make her stand out among her Democratic colleagues. To be the Senate Democrat with the stiffest spine may be somewhat analogous to being the tallest building in Topeka (to steal a line from Wm. F. Buckely, of all people). But it is still better than a poke in the eye, and in these days of diminished expectations, I'll give her a hearty "huzzah" for her efforts.
Just wanted to add my kudos to the blog here, which I'll be adding to my blogroll over on the Nuke Free Zone after I make this comment. It is, I confess, a bit early to be thinking of '08 (I sorta would like to see how '06 goes first), but of the candidates, Boxer is definitely up there.
It makes me proud that she's my senator. I'm also proud that she's my senator because she bothers to come to my part of the state, which is both small in population and very Republican, but she came. There's a reason she got more votes than either Bush or Kerry, and that's part of it right there.

I believe she does have balls. Everyone knows how screwed up they are in Northern Cal when it comes to lifestyles. Boxer is nothing more than a big mouth who can't see past her own ego.
