Back in 1980s and 1990s, the Democrats had several governors to pick from as presidential candidates. Clinton, Cuomo, Dukakis. Today who do they have? Their top state governors now are Jennifer Granholm in Michigan (who is constitutionally ineligible to run for President), Bill Richardson in NM, and Rod Blagojevich in Illinois.

Ed Rendell and Bill Richardson plus Janet Napolitano are prez vp frontrunners for 2008 (assuming no Hill). And Mark Warner. Blago sees himself running for prez, it's true . . .

Blago wants to run for president. Even before he was sworn in as my Governor (yuck!), Blago was talking about running for president. Blago, being a Chicago Machine Hack, is obessed with gun control. Because of this, there is no way he will carry a single Southern sate. However, Mike Easley and Phil Breseden might be viable presidential contenders.
