Thompson in, Gore's a winner and beating up on kids as a political strategy (includes missing 8 minutes!)

NOTE TO FANS... thank you for your submissions on the theme... we think we've narrowed it down to the winners, so there might be a new theme song next time...

NOTE TO FANS II: Electric Boogaloo... some of you may have downloaded a show that mysteriously dropped a chunk of the last segment. Download it again, and don't miss a minute of the genius of the ragtag gang of the usual suspects...

NOTE TO FANS III: In 3D... This wonderful technology befuddles us again. NOW we think the fix is in and you might even get the show downloaded again in your podcatcher if all is right in the world. If not, you can download directly from the site by right clicking on the gray "pod" graphic and saving the mp3 file directly to your computer...
