I can’t understand why the media keeps forgeting about Mike Gravel, but they will talk about Alan Keyes.
I think Mike scares them, he is a loose cannon that destroys other Democrats. He is almost like our Ron Paul. But he is left out of debates, and no one cares.
I just have a hunch that Clinton, Edwards and Obama wanted him out for their own good. Remember that little word exchange that Clinton had with Edwards about wanting to not have lower tier candidates at the debates? Well maybe this is why Gravel and Kucinich often times get shunned.
That depends on who the Republicans run. If it's Tax Hike Mike, those people would stay home or cast a protest LP vote.
You and Clinton (either one) both.
Fred is a possibility, if he lasts out the campaign. My own personal opinion is that he is a tired old man that will collapse before he gets to the finish line. Time will tell on that one. If he makes it to November 2008 I will vote for him.
I think Mitt is already mortally wounded and will keep on sinking.
I am not discounting Duncan entirely yet, and Tom Tancredo still could have his day in the sun, if he starts placing well in some primaries.
It is too early to discount the ones like Tancredo and Hunter that have not yet had their day in the spotlight and been vetted by public opinion. They do have time to move up and Iowa could start either one or perhaps even both of them on the upswing.
larry
Cheap shot.
