I doubt McCain, Giuliani, Hillary, JfK & Edwards will ever be nominated. I think this election will be between current or previuos Governors....should be very interesting!
They want to win. But they also want to win on a pure Liberal ideology, as they have adopted the term Liberalism to represent. A Maxist godless Global Community. I don't think anyone can know which will be the more powerful draw four years from now.
Edwards is living in a dream world. He couldn't even win his own state. I like Rudy, I'd vote for him in a general election, but I wouldn't vote to send him to that general election. He's a Liberal loyal Republican straight on what he believes that is strong on Defense. Preferable to anyone the Dems are likely to put up. I'd prefer a conservative though, and will vote accoringly in the primary.
McCain will never have my vote. These polsters can continue to put his name out there but without base support, he loses. The prospect of anyone short of Hitler on the Dem aisle could not entice me to vote for him.
