I'm too lazy to type up a table for the democrats but here's their basic results

1. Hillary
2. Mark Warner
3. John Edwards
4. Evan Bayh
5. Tom Vilsack
6. The dumbest man in the senate
7. Bill Richardson
8. John Kerry
9. Al Gore
10. Wesley Clark

Some points to make, Mccain and Allen retain their first and second place position, but since april 30th they have solidified their positions and are far ahead of their nearest competition(both have double of what romney and rudy have). Frist has crashed and burned, he was right on mccain and allen's tail before but now.. well.. Rudy has stayed at about the same place. it should be noted that almost all of the people who voted for rudy as first place, voted for mccain for second place.

Kennedy isn't running, is he? C'mon, give me a hint, there's so many to choose from, and Rangel isn't a Senator...

You've already two of my other suggestions listed, no fair.

The comments made by alot of the mccain people in this poll are that, if bush looks like hes crashing in burning in 2008 he's the only republican who can stop hillary. It's funny b/c one of the mccain people accuse rudy of being unelectable.

Somehow, getting satisfaction from mentioning the name of Joe Biden is not possible, if you know what I mean!

Nice to see the pence fanatics coming back in to try and steal allen's thunder. Stellar dendrite that article is a hit piece written by a hack at human events. LOok at the context of the article and read my posts #41 and #42. Allen is not squishy on immigration and hes not sitting on the fence, that hack writer put those titles to mislead people into thinking he's something hes not. Read the actual interview and no where does he sit on the fence or appear squishy.

Barbour needs to move up, McCain and Romney need to disappear.

He asked her to meet with her before the whole drama ensued, he said that it woudlnt be wise to meet with her after the whole crawford protest hoopla started.

I dont see anything wrong meeting with sheehan the first time, she did loose her son, but to meet with her after all her barking moonbat ravings would be wrong and he did state, if you look at his whole statement.. not the excerpts some freepers post he said he woudlnt have met her after the barking moonbat phase she entered.
