2008 Dream Teams Speculation

As the 2008 U.S. presidential race shifts into higher gear this week, are Americans' preferences any clearer?

In a column several months ago, I asked readers to identify "dream teams" among the existing Republican and Democratic candidates or to create their own; nearly 500 people have responded by e-mail, telephone and regular mail.

I, personally, have not moved any closer to making a decision about a presidential candidate than I had in the spring. I do, however, stick by my preliminary dream-team recommendations: U.S. Sen. John McCain of Arizona/U.S. Sen. Olympia Snowe of Maine on the Republican side, and former U.S. Vice President Al Gore/U.S. Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois for the Democrats.

Among Democrats, Gore and Obama tied for top place as ideal presidential nominees, with about 21 percent each. Many believed that Gore, who really had no need to enter the campaign early, will declare his candidacy at some point during this month or in October. Clinton followed with approximately 17 percent.
