Heh. One of my friends (well, aquaintance really. Actually, I hardly know the guy. Some stranger I ran into...) is part of a Wica/pagan network and apparently they keep up with that kind of stuff. It's good for a giggle on occasion.

 

Oh, and McCain is too old. I think he said himelf that he would not run in '08.

 

Bill Frist from Republican Party and Hilary Clinton from Democratic Party is what I am thinking. Ofcourse, others will emerge, someone we never anticipated. It is going to be quite interesting.

 

If those two turn out to be the candidates, I think Hillary has a very good chance of winning. That would be good.

 

McCain is a very appealing and experienced politician, and I don't think his age will hurt him. But I but I sometimes have had a hard time figuring out what side of an issue he is on -- depending on whom he is speaking to. He is honest, and otherwise I admire his character - certainly more than any Dubya. I think he is actually planning to run. He has been positioning himself for too long to back off. Of the Republic possibles he would seem to be able to hold on the the right wing (where else would they go?) and appeal to many moderates.

I personally do not see any conservative majority in this country -- at least not yet. The moderates always determine the outcome.

 

Your point about moderates determining the outcome of the election is insightful. However, moderates with conservative leaning factors in. When the push comes to shove, people will circle the wagon and the battle will follow. Moderates are laid back and somewhat disinterested until the race tightens, in my view. And as moderates gain enthusiasm, so does the silent majority whether they be conservative or liberal. It will be an interesting 08. I do seriously think Hilary Clinton has a very good shot in our next election. I hope the Republicans can put forth a strong candidate to oppose our Junior Senator from the state of New York.

 

If Hillary Clinton ever becomes president, I think I will kill myself.

 

If Hillary Clinton wins, I'll move back to Utah--they don't let Democrats in that state.

 

You forgot the cigar lounge.

McCain has some skeletons in his closet that would be prime fodder in a Presidential campaign..(S & L bailouts anyone?)

And I also think the people moaning about a Bush monarchy are forgetting the first family of Taxachussets.....

I'm not too hot on anyone being talked about now...I'll reserve my judgement until I do a little digging.

 

That would be kind of a drastic way to welcome a great president, don't you think?
