I hear Willie Nelson is looking for work.

"The Democrats "need only nominate a moderate candidate with warmth,"

Yeah, Hillary would fit that....sure....that's the ticket.....

[z95m]

... and the MSM is still quoting Larry Sabato!

[Toespi]

I hear Daschle is looking for a job.

[macamadamia]

Yeah, and the pundits said that McCain would be the 2000 nominee, that Gore would run in 2004, that 2002 would be Florida's revenge for 2000, that Hillary would be the 2004 candidate, that 2002 mid-term would be a squeaker....and so on....

I like the idea that they want a new Clinton. They lost both houses under him. With another Clinton, maybe the Senate can get their 60. Good thinking.

[Doctor Stochastic]

Now Hillary Clinton, the senator for New York state, is likely to dominate the Democratic party debate while she makes up her mind whether to stand.

I would have guessed that she had to sit.

[anniegetyourgun]

BRING BACK DR. DEAN!

[Aquinasfan]

But Hillary Clinton (news - web sites) is the most quoted name for the next contender.

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeexcellent.

The Democrats "need only nominate a moderate candidate with warmth,"

They still think that it's their delivery that was the problem, not their socialist/communist ideas. I just hope they don't figure it out...

[Fury]

"John Kerry is no Bill Clinton. There is very little warmth there, and people didn't warm to him. A moderate Democratic candidate with personal warmth would have defeated George W. Bush easily."

A good reason why Hillary is not a good choice...

[skeeter]

The it will never occur to the Dims that it is their liberal ideals that are unappealing to the majority of Americans.

[cbcloud]

Not to disagree with Dr. Sabato, but I think the Democrats have had enough of east-coast liberal senators. Their only candidates that have won have been southern or border state governors. They should look hard at the governor of Virginia, or the re-elected governor of North Carolina, who bucked the Republican tide.

For the Republicans...Mayor Guiliani or governor Jeb Bush of Florida. Or, a ticket of them both would probably be unbeatable...

[DOGEY]

Larry wasn't very accurate this year. Didn't he predict Kerry? These experts on TV talk more than they think.

[Cowboy Bob]

Kerry defeat leaves stunned Democrats searching for a new Clinton

They'll need to look for a new H. Ross Perot while they're at it. Good Luck!

[Dont Mention the War]

She is however the Democrat that hard-core Republicans most love to hate.

Uh, no, Frenchies. She is the Democrat we most hate, period. If she runs, the mobilization against her by the right will make our anti-Kerry efforts look like a few (dare I say it) spitballs.

[Edit35]

Hi, I'm John Kerry. (Kerry says in his deep booming voice)

And I'm reporting for retirement.

(Thanks to Michael Medvid, who just cracked me up on his radio show with that comment)

[joesnuffy]

Leave no rock unturned....bound to find another Manchurian 'can o dirt' under one somewhere....check the ones with lots of slime on them...

[snowsislander]

Barack Obama, a 43-year-old rising star in the party who became the lone black American senator in Tuesday's election, is talked about as a possible future candidate.

Wow. They really don't get it. From everything I have heard, Senator-elect Obama has an excellent chance of equalling Senator Kerry's ultra-liberal record in the Senate, which make him as unelectable as president as Senator Kerry.
