<br>Dear All--
<br>
<br>        There's a wonderful line in the movie _Crimes of the Heart_:  "He ain't
<br> a
<br>liberal, he's a Democratic."
<br>

<br>  Recently I heard a Southern politician (can't remember who) say that
<br>  someone "would vote for a yellow dog before he'd vote for a Republican."
<br>  The comment implies that even if the yellow dog were a Libertarian he
<br>would
<br>  vote for him rather than a Republican.  I'd heard the term used this way
<br>  before and hoped to remember particulars of what I heard recently in case
<br>  this term came up again on ads-l, but alas ---
<br>  .  It was briefly discussed a year or so ago.
