5. If it's him vs. Hillary it will happen...
I know people don't want to hear it but I'm as sure of that as I've ever been sure of anything in my life.

I'm absolutely no fan of Obama's "Everybody hold hands and think positive thoughts and everything will be solved" republican pandering triangulation. But I think he would stand a good chance of beating McCain simply by virtue of the youth vote and the contrast between the two of them.

I just don't have the stomach to watch the media and the establishments get their rocks off by re-fighting the culture wars of the 60's with the Vietnam war hero versus the traitorous liberal hippie (yes I know this isn't what Hillary was, I'm speaking of the way it's going to be played out).

7. I actually think Rudy is the best of the worst
I dont know how you get worse than McCain on the war, and his liberal social issue positions are still there.

9. i know.

the thing about rudy -- even though he has some liberal views; he said he would appoint scalia-like judges to the supreme court.

both McCain and rudy have bad tempers.

then we have huckabee who wants to change the constitution.

romney -- i don't even know what to think about ken except he wants to be president so bad. one of his businesses cost the taxpayers 25 million.

10. I really wish you all would see the light
For all you "experience" freaks. I want to hear what you are saying in 2 years when the US STILL has a major military presence in Iraq, the economy is still broken, and nothing has changes. It is going to be either Hillary or McCain since that is what everyone wants. THE US DOES NOT ELECT PRESIDENTS NOW; WE HAVE THEM CHOSEN FOR US.
