As of today, December 1, 2006 - the three Republican contenders are McCain, Giuliani and Romney. Duncan Hunter is not yet at that level (sorry, but he simply doesn't have the visibility). McCain is far too mentally inconsistent. That leaves Giuliani and Romney. Giuliani has visibility and good ratings with the voters at large (sorry Rudy-haters, but he does) - Romney doesn't have that (yet). If we assume that Hillary is the Democrat nominee, surely the best idea is find who is going to be well placed to kill her off?

I really like Newt, Hunter is a good man but likely not viable, McCain may as well be a democrat, Rudy scares me on his very pro amnesty stance, I like that Romney has the courage to be anti-amnesty, McCain is the only one i couldn't consider. And I don't think Tancredo is a nut.
