The Next President is Going To Be
This is going to be a Presidential Election where the Front Runners of one Party or the other are going to knock themselves out and a relativily unknown canidate is going to get the limelight or Party nomination. Huckalbee or Richardson are the Dark horse canidates at the moment.
Richardson will very likely be the VP Canidate for the Democrats at the very least. He will pull Western voters, since he is the Gov of New Mexico.

If Rudy could get off his butt and define himself as something more than a guy that was around during 9/11 he has curb appeal.
I like Richardson as well.

I like Mitt. I wish he would give up on trying to play conservative credentials that he doesn't have. He's a good manger.

I thought our two choices were Obama or Hillary? Who are all these other people you speak of?

Richardson. I've always liked him. I think Edwards is dropping out.
On the right, who knows? I think it'll still come down to Clinton vs. McCain.

The conservatives may hurt his chances in the primaries, but if he gets the nomination he'll likely win the election.

The winner will be someone who has not yet declared. I am sure of it.

Both parties will actively try to lose this election.

I think Gore is a late entry dark horse. It could happen. Do I THINK it will happen? Not really, but I agree it could.

I hope it's not too late. The next giant leap toward serfdom will come in the form of legislation to limit CO2 emissions and the taxes and regulations that will come with it. The People were to be the master and government their servant. Hard to believe with the bunch of communists running our nations capital. We need more regime change, not less, but at home.

Hilary could win the Nomination, but I don't think she can win the presidential election. I can't think of any person who would motivate the Conservative base more to get out and vote than her.
McCain could win the nomination, but he has a long record to be endlessly "discussed" in the presidential election portion, making him only a winner if Hillary "wins" the nomination. Rudy is too centerist to win the Nomination. Obama could win. Gore might be able to win, but he has some baggage created after he lost the last election thats easily able to be dragged up. And his wife tried to screw over Rock and Roll! On a serious side, He will bring big business out in droves for his opponet. I want a canidate who will finish this war by 09, and do something about our trade issues, and balance the books, leave guns and abortion alone, and fix the schools. |
