I can't believe the Dems would be that stupid again. OK, so yes I can. I believe the Democrats would have won this election fairly easily if they had nominated a moderate candidate with a good voting track record on defense issues. In 2008, if they nominate one of the most reviled Democrats, they are just setting themselves up for a repeat. Go right ahead, make our days!

He's my senator and I think one of the best senators there. But he's already gathered a nationwide group of people who hate him and are contributing money to defeat him in 2006. I think he'd have a hard time getting elected. But I also think he'd make be of our better presidents.

Barack Obama

He will have to change that name to get elected. Is that Klingon or something?

Hillary can't win. She could have possibly won in a pre-9/11 climate, but now, with a WOT that will last for years, even the Dims felt compelled to put a fraudulent 'war hero' at the top of their ticket.

Four years is a long time. Hillary could very well win considering how close Kerry came. Who's out there to run against here in 2008?

As #5 said, "Make Our Day".

The BEAST has triple the baggage of sKerry and 10-8 skeletons in her closet. So as the Swift Boat Vets and POWs outed the phony war hero, people will come forward with the dirt on her, to wit:

Like Dubya has been saying about Kerry's record;

"You can run - but you cannot hide!"

So yeah, bring her on. It'll be fun seeing her self destruct in 'fly-over' country. Her disdain for the 'little people' will go over real well when they're told she wants to make them irrelevant by eliminating the Electoral College.

Mitt Romney?

George Pataki?

Rudy will be too old, so I'm not sure who else would be on the short list.

I can't say I ever recall HC ever accused of having 'charisma', not even hinted. This is a first.

I say "Bring It (Her) On".

Hoeffel is a tough competitor. I've heard John Street might run for it. And I know a college professor who has been raising money for a 2006 run now for awhile. He's trying to get the State democratic committee to get behind one candidate so that they won't splinter in the primaries and will be in a better position to defeat Santorum in the general election. Of course, the gentleman I know wants to get the state comm behind him and we don't think that will happen. If they follow his advice, it may be Street if he wants it. I hadn't thought of Hoeffel, but I bet you're right. That's a worry. There are crazy people in the PA forum here on FR who want to oppose Santorum at any price because he endorsed Specter instead of Toomey. Because of efforts of short-sighted people like them, Santorum could be in some trouble, although I hope not.

With Barack Obama, there is really less there than meets the eye, except to a liberal.

His name is African-Islamic in origin. Obama's father is a Kenyan Muslim who apparently took little interest in his upbringing. His mother is a classic white liberal. He was reared in a middle-class essentially white cultural lifestyle far removed from the urban black experience.

He has a way of invoking religion and using pious-sounding words, but if you probe below his religious exterior it you find a bowl of unitarian-style mush mouldering there.

He's tall and well-spoken. That counts for something. But conservatives will reject him for his unabashed liberalism.

But look how far Kerry got. Obama has more of a personality and is even more smooth talking than Kerry. His father may have been a Muslim, but Obama never was that I know. His parents are dead, so I doubt that they will be an issue.

Look for Hellery to adopt a new "moderate" tone to her senate presense. I will welcome it, but will see right through it and will make sure others do too.
