Yeah. Hilary won't do well at all.



YES!!!! We must start now!!!! Edwards/Obama!!!!!!!!!!!

I think that if Edwards wants to do well he will announce if towards the beginning of 2006, so he can just start campainging lightly, an start raising some money.

Anyway, any one else think Edwards/Obama would make a good ticket?

The Repubs best bet right now would be McCain/Giuliani, anyone think that would be a good ticket?


McCain yes, Guiliani no... Not that many people outside of NY know Guiliani... I'd question that statement

Once he gets into Republican primaries, he'll be ripped apart as being too liberal when mayor of NYC... He was pro-choice (big no-no for a Republicans), he is divorced (talk about family values) and also Catholic (so hard for a Catholic to win trust/endorsement of the G.O.P.), just to name a few quirks that'll hold him down...

Anyway, many things might change between now and then, so it is kind of early to think of who will become frontrunner for the Republicans in four years... :wink:


I think that's the point, that by REpublican standards he's pretty liberal and could therefor appeal to a much larger group than just Republicans, the way Arnold was elected in California despite the state consistently coting Democrat.

While I'm not thrilled about having another Republican in the White House, McCain/Guiliani is much more appealing than Dick/Cheney.

Yeah...thats why I personally think that the Democrats will win 2008 pretty easily. Edwards/Obama 08!!!!!!!

All people know about Guiliani is 9/11, once Dems would start a couple of well placed ads about what he has voted in his past... Lot of conservatives would turn away from him... Hey that's just my opinion... He might look great on paper but once you get down to the real story and start crafting a coherent candidate's picture, it will have more holes, than many would like to accept... :wink:

And, yes I agree McCain/Guiliani would be lot preferable then the current combo... :wink: :wink:

I was surprised to see statistics that Kerry ended up carring the middle-ground independents 55-45. I mean, if you can carry the center and still not win, that's pretty sad statement about the country if one wing only can dominate like that.

It's not like he got 100% of those. And it's not like exit polls were actually right ;-)

Getting 100% of them is beside the point. The final exit polls were pretty close. It was just the early exit polls that were wrong. The reason, of course was that angrier voters were voting early. It's a lot like when a hyped movie opens, it is front loaded for the first few hours.

Well you were talking about it as if he carried 100% of the moderates. He didn't. He got 55%, and Bush got 45%. So Bush's base was more energized.

BTW, Bush got more Democratic vote than Kerry got Republican.

Powell would never run. He's a military man and he obviously didn't like his tenure in politics over the past 4 years.

BY the way, those same exit polls that you're quoting, Archie, show that Bush picked up 1% of the moderate vote since 2000.

Because he doesn't take away the rights from those who vote for him and they also agree with him doing that?

Guys!!!

Don't worry about the exit polls, they are meaningless.

All the people voting for bush are still at work, while all the homeless and unemployed who are voting for kerry literally have nothing better to do!

College students who vote also tend to vote early.
