We aren't even close to the primaries yet. Don't even know for sure who the contenders will be. Let's concentrate on that first, before we start obsessing about post '08.

No sense borrowing tomorrow's problems, 'specially when we've got more than enough to deal with today.

I agree to a point. I just see this going from one extreme of fighting this war so well and Homeland security starting to pay off and the Bush domestic policies that he has in the works are all going to be undone to the other extreme of the scale simply because we don't have a "real Contender" for the Whitehouse and some minor senator
will get in by the skin of his/her teeth just becase the other Canidate didnt have the pull or favor of the public.
These last 2 terms were Heavy-Weights for office. Now we have light welterwights coming to bat. I apologize for offending anyone if they think diffrently.
