Unless it's Allen, the real handicap will belong to The American People. Between all the Dem losers and the squishy RINOs (not to mention an uninspiring field of GOP governors), conservative Americans are in "deep doo-doo" for 2008. Their best bet is that the Dims choose someone so far left (Howard Dean, for example) that the Republicans can claim the squishy middle by default.
In my best hopes, it is Allen vs. Hillary. In my worst fears, it is McCain vs. Hillary.

Saw a little blurb in The Sporting News that seems to fit here.
Second baseman Alfonso Soriano was traded from the Texas Rangers to the Washington Nationals. The slugging former Yankee insists he will not move from second base even though he doesn't play the position well. Most teams, including the Nationals, want to turn him into an outfielder.
TSN noted "This is uncommon because most people when they get to Washington seem extrememly eager to backpedal and change positions".
