Unless the Democrats can derail him, or get Hillary to run as VP, Dean is going to be the Demo's man.

It seems that Moammar Gadhafi has learned his lesson from the Reagan years.  | |

Who knows what's in Gadhafi's mind? The death of his child seemed to have a tremendous impact. The bombs missed him and got his kid.
Maybe its realizing that "Arab Unity" isn't so unified. Maybe he's just getting older. He's only about 65, which is kinda young for someone who's been ruling for nearly 35 years!

Khadafi(or Ghadafi) is no egotistical fool. Welcome to the good side, Mini-Me.  | |

The one thing I always wondered is why he is only a Colonel? Hell he owns a country, you would think he would promote himself to general.

Actually, Qadaffi has no official title in his government. Again, like some other leaders in the region, he brough Libya to a better standard of living. It used to have the absolute lowest standard in the world. Traditionally, they are nomads.
