Identity Crisis

DENVER -- Standing in front of a 16th Street sandwich shop, "Jessica Sideways" held up a hand-lettered poster: "I am an atheist, lesbian, male-to-female transsexual and I embrace it all!"
Jessica hasn't yet gotten the Change, but the 20-year-old blonde has Hope -- working for $11 an hour, she's almost saved up enough money to make an appointment with a surgeon in Thailand who will perform the transformation.
Jessica wasn't a delegate to this week's convention, but in some ways her plight epitomizes the Democratic Party's search for identity in the post-Clinton era.
