Oh-Eight

Thirteen months. Seven Hundred Four Days. Sixteen-thousand, eight hundred eighty-nine hours. No matter how you break it down, we've still got a ways to go before election day 2008. It seems like all anyone wants to talk about however, is who will be the two candidates appearing on the ballot that day. Yesterday, only 3 weeks and 2 days after the midterm election, Tom Vilsack
kicked off his campaign with a quick speech in Iowa and then headed to New Hampshire, South Carolina and other key primary states. John McCain and Mitt Romney
fought over attendees of the Republican Governors Association. Meanwhile, at our meeting last night, we set out to talk about congress, and kept turning back to who should/would run in '08. So I thought it would be interesting to open the internet floor to hear who everyone's candidate is. I personally haven't decided who "my guy" (or gal!) is yet. I know I don't like Kerry (he's had his chance) . I also don't like Hillary. It has nothing to do with her sex or her potential "Winnability". For one I think her continued support for the war puts her out of sync with me and most other Democrats. I also don't think she's proven herself. Let's be honest, she's a smart and saavy woman, no doubt, but she was able to jump into the Seante race in 2000 and win mostly because of Bill, and she didn't exactly face the toughest re-election this year. Other than being against those two, I'm still up in the air as to who I'll be supporting. What about everyone else? Who do you want to see as the Democratic Nominee?
