I believe that it would be possible and not unprecedented for a candidate to take his supporters, organization, etc. and transfer it to another candidate. That is what generally happens as the field narrows. I don't think funds could be transferred, but after McCain-Feingold, who would know?

I'm not sure, but I suspect the funds could be transferred if the transferring candidate were also on the ticket. (Trans.: "Clinton/Clark 2004!!!!")

But Gerard, didn't you read whoever the hell it was - I can't remember - who speculated when Clark threw his hat in the ring, complete with a Bill endorsement, that this was what was actually going on? Clark builds a political organization, while Hilary gets time to look at how the numbers are shaping up closer to the election. If Bush looks beatable later on, she swoops in and takes over the campaign, with Clark getting the veep spot. If not, she doesn't, and Clark gets to have his campaign built with the help of Bill and friends. A win-win situation for both.

Ahaha. Get over it neocons. You guys are the only ones cheering for Hillary to run. She's not going to do it. Face facts.

To help you become a good Aqua citizen, Apple has created a few guidelines. I've put together a brief overview of them, and we'll be tackling many of them in the months to come.

By building an application that takes advantage of Aqua's many facets, you help ensure that your application will not only look good, but have a chance of becoming a raging success. After a new user clicks on the icon of your program, the first thing he or she sees is the application interface. I know that when I review a product, I am very critical of its visual design. I usually have a short time to learn the new software, so design and ease of use are very important. Aside from those who marvel at the beauty of the command line, most users tend to react the same way.

Clicking an application in the dock should always bring forward an active window. If the user clicks on an open app's icon in the Dock, the application is active and all unminimized windows come along with it. I have found a few problems with windows behaving independently of their application.

This topic is one we will tackle later in this article, but it refers to making sure that your application and the dock aren't fighting it out for supremacy of the screen.

At WWDC, I listened to Apple representatives make some excellent points about taking the time to build a 100%-compliant Aqua application, and I think all developers need to look beyond the code and listen to what the folks at Apple have to say

For my Paint application, I created a series of icons to simulate a rendering algorithm. While the application is performing this CPU-intensive task, you can always see the status of the document by the icon changing in the Dock.

Dock Animation. Sometimes animating icons in the dock can be useful in communicating the status of the system or application.
