1. No.
Just because her ox got gored, doesn't excuse the rest of her votes.

Silly question, really.

13. Because maybe we're done being slaves to the South?
I think we're better off going with a Midwestern or Western moderate. Sorry.

18. Who did you have in mind... Tom Vilsack?
Come on they just don't have the charisma like southern democrats do. They are a special breed. They win for a reason. But I do think you have right basic idea. I could handle a Midwestern demo.

No way! But I can see Al Gore perhaps being in the frame where I once had written him off for good. GORE/CLARK '08

10. Hell, no. She had the chance to bop Bush in the mouth and didn't
do it. Some of these Dems really irk me cause they talk really tough behind his back, but when they're face to face they smile and say "yes, Mr. President". No, I want someone with a whole lot of guts.

16. That's what I think...
She probably won't run for President in 2008 because of Hillary. But I wouldn't be surprised if she was choosen as the Democratic V-P canidate in 2008. I'd be glad to see her on the ticket. She could bring back some of the soccer moms in the suburbs that used to be a key part of this party.

Sorry to say but ragging liberals won't win the Presidency anytime soon.
