It's what the ruling class gives us to "choose" from.

Clinton - not ready for a woman.
Obama - Not ready for black that nobody knows.
Edwards - too young.
Guiliani- terror nut, will get us into another war soon... shady
Romney- do we want a mormon who flip-flops more than a pair of sandals running our country?
McCain- no thoughts yet...
Huckabee- Legitimate charm, panders too much to his christian base, some question marks here.
Ron Paul - a dream vote, would clear up so many issues for us and loosen the shackles a little bit from our living room and bank account..no shot of winning

I agree.. You have a woman and a black guy who's middle and last names rhyme with terrorists leading the pact with the Democrats.

Now I have nothing against you two, but if this is the general consensus across the country for those piss-poor reasons, that's pretty sad. These two IMO are def. not the best candidates but for different reasons: they are both on the liberal side, I'm not ready for Bill to be back in the White House, and Obama just has no experience..regardless of what Oprah thinks.

I like the +150 on the Republican party winning the presidency..

Whoever the Democrats choose, I can't see winning. Not Hillary, not Obama, not Edwards, and those are the three biggest players...

I think Huckabee, Guiliani, McCain, Romney would all beat out Hillary. We're not going to have a woman president in office yet in this country, I can just feel it.

I agree Crazy. I'm REALLY beginning to think our next President will be Mike Huckabee. He's conservative enough to take out his Republican foes, yet reasonable enough to take out his potential Democratic opponent. May look into making a play on him as a matter of fact....

As for who I'd like to see win personally, the answer is obviously Ron Paul. He's so well thought out and would make this country substantially more free for all of us, but alas he has no corporate interests and thus gets left out of the spotlight. I'll vote for him regardless, as he's the only candidate that I believe makes my voting time worthwhile...

It's one or two elections too early for a Ron Paul but there is hope IMO. The industries will have a harder and harder time using bought media to convince us that these guys aren't electable.

I agree with Ron Paul on the Constitution, Economy, and Iraq - but I disagree 100% on everything else.


Obama '08
He will win Iowa, then NH&SC and then beat the republican party.


I cant see the current crop of Republicans (even the surging Huckabee) winning a general election

Bush has really messed up the Republican party and I cannot see them winning this time around, the Democrats are getting like 3 times the amount of money than the Republicans are. I can see O'Bama winning and I could see Clinton winning also. I think the primaries are going to be very close also.

Yeah, exactly...who would want a person with a diverse ethnic and cultural background who graduated from two Ivy League university and articulates a progressive agenda.

Frankly, I'd prefer a failed businessman whose time in college was considered well below par and whose political experiences came largely by way of his father's name and connections and this individual, preferably, should be able to directly communicate with God about important foreign policy decisions. That's the kind of leader I want and that America needs.....

It's gonna be Hillary, unless she self-destructs, a modest chance of that, but not likely. It won't be Obama, he has no chance this time around, and he knew that from the get-go, he ran for next time. But I would say that right now, of all the candidates' chances of ever being Prez at any time, his I would currently rate as the highest except for Hillary's.

If Hillary self-destructs in the primary, it will be Edwards, and he will steamroll over any Republican. If it's in the general election, we'll have Guiliani, and pray that his maniacal tough-guy schtick is just an act (which I am 99% confident it is.)
