The only thing for certain is, that we sure do live in interesting times. First time in forever that either an incumbent or sitting veep is not running, or that a senator stands the best chance of being elected. Under the circumstances, with not only a woman but the wife of a former president as the heir apparent to the democratic ticket, what a perfect opportunity for a new, young black man to challenge her for that position.

If the best the Republican Party can do in this situation is to present a RINO with a voting record any democrat would be proud of, then the party powers to be deserve what they get - and what they should get is the lowest Republican turnout in history. Sure, it would result in a democratic landslide but let ‘em gloat while they can: Four years of Carter got us 12 years of Reagan-Bush.

An Obama administration would be a heck of lot more interesting than another Clinton regime, esp. to see what kind of talent he would bring into his cabinet. We already know what Hillary will do: trot out all the old dinosaur libs surviving from the Carter years and the snakes-in-the-grass who always seem to be in the Clinton inner circle.

If it’s McCain, I would just like to see how little support he would get - he might end up with more democrats voting for him than Republicans. You know they always say there’s room for everyone under the Big Tent: A heckuva lot MORE room if all the regulars don’t show.

Yeah, they're gonna have an empty tent with stale popcorn and watered down candidates. And, I do agree w/you that these are interesting times. The future seems to be totally up in the air and we don't know who will get the coin toss.

I'm not panicking cuz I'll never vote for McCain. I can always say, "don't look at me."
