At a time when voters have lost confidence in the Bush administration and are desperate for change, an anti-Washington candidate could be very interesting, especially if he’s a Republican.

The candidate, if any, that successfully does this will win in '08. People hate both parties right now. That's what 2006 was about. It's become worse since then. I said this when it looked pretty clear he'd run. The fact he left Washington on his own accord is his strongest selling point.

To counter, do not be surprised if Gore enters. He can play the role too. Not as successfully, since he didn't leave of his own choosing. But he did leave Washington and re-invent himself as a front runner in the Liberal culture.

I actually kind of hope he does. It would be the ultimate culture clash election. I'd rather an open and honest no holds bar clash over the future of this country, then prevarication Hillary brings to the table. I think fred would ultimately win out, as the conservative culture holds more appeal to the majority then the other. but either way we'd know where we stood.
