18. I say Clark And/Or Hillary
But not necessarily in that order ;)

Clark was just too much of a newbie last time around...give him a few years and he'd be ready with his resume neutralizing whatever benefit the Republicans think war gives them.

Hillary is naturally the front-running darling of the media, but, then again, the media backlash is already starting.

Obama is a solid and fresh face for the Democrats, but I think he should be wary of following Edwards and appearing too eager for the top job. Let him run in 2012 or 2016 after getting a term or two under his belt in the senate.

I liked Dean a lot and still think he would have made a better general-election candidate (all of the "capturing Saddam doesn't make us safer" talk was, politically, simply way before its time) but the media just don't like the guy for whatever reason.

Gore and Kerry could both be battle-tested candidates that can win (or win again), but there's something unexciting about both of these guys. Just my opinion, of course, but I'd like to see some new faces.
