In any case, it may be too early to tell but I thought it may be interesting to see into the 2008 Presidential elections; the only thing that isn't so totally depressing about the States right now.
Democratic candidates:
Sen. Hilary Clinton
Sen. Barak Obama
Former Sen. John Edwards
Sen. Joe Biden
Republican candidates:
Sen. John McCain
Sen. Sam Brownback
Former Mayor Rudy Giuliani
Sen. Mike Huckabee
Good God let Obama win it. |
The only Republican I would ever consider voting for would be Rudy Giuliani because he is liberal on many important social issues and he's just a great man in general. NY Conservatives are
very different from the rest of the republicans in the US. But I would only vote for him if Edwards won the Primary... I despise that man.
I'm currently leaning toward Barak Obama, I love Sentor Clinton but she's to polarizing even in the Party to secure a win for the Democrats in 2008. Obama has a much better chance given the Republican conpetition. I've also seen him speak and he reminds me of President Clinton, he grabs your attention and makes you listen to what he's saying. So yeah OBAMA 2008!!
