Hillary will win unless two things happen.

1. Evangelicals are not marginalized over the next 3.5 years; the Republicans cater enough to this very important segment of their base that they again turn out. More pro-life policies, conservative judges, etc. Placate enough for acceptance of 2.

2. Republicans nominate a pro-life "moderate" to retain the Dem temptables. Wide appeal, but has to be acceptable to base (ie not McCain, nor probably Guiliani since he is pro-gay and isn't pro-life).

Does it look like Bush is going to satisfy 1? And who among the potentials for 2008 fit 2? Four years of Hillary will be nasty, and I hate to say it but she looks set to take the mushies in the middle. I want at least ONE good government in North America! Just my take...

Bottom line: When we have a candidate (like a Reagan or Bush) that can keep ALL facets of the Republican Party together, we win.
We lose when we run a John McCain.
