I think any of the potential democartic line up -Gore, Hilary, Kerry, Daschle have more to offer than Bush. Personally my favorites, in order, are: (1) John Kerry - great ideas about the environment, foreign policy, energy, diversity, and he served in Vietnam. Was fantastic during the Hardball interview at the Citadel! (2) Hillary Clinton - charming woman, has the "media face" that is so imprtant in politics. Is centrist and is doing a great job as Senator. Seems she has Bill Clinton's backing - and I think America can sure use his advisory skills. (3) Al Gore - the election was his to loose and he lost it. Agree with his positions on most issues including environment and affirmative action, social security. Barring the San Fran speech has been slightly more hawkish on foreign policy like his former boss clinton (4)John Edwards - charismatic. Dont know enough about him yet. (5) Daschle - great senate maj leader. (6) Lieberman - I think he is a Republican disguised as a democrat. This are just my preferences. What actual chance these people stand can perhaps be the topic of another discussion. |

" Seems she has Bill Clinton's backing ...." Are you kidding me? |

Nope ... I am merely making a guess based on the fact that they are still together inspite of everything that happened and I have no reason to believe he will not support her if she decided to run( just like any other husband would support his wife) |

Orion. They are a couple in love. Bill wants her to run perhaps more than even she herself does. :-) |

History could be a good indicator of things in this uncertainty perpetuated period. Nixon lost like Gore in 60 and did not run in 64, Goldwater was defeated soundly then. Talk about a red herring national calamity taking over the people’s election issues. Gore should hang his hat, grow his beard and let who ever the democrats nominate, to brood the eventual loss in November 04 run, for it seems he will meet that fate. Okay. But to borrow Paschim’s translation ‘silence indicates acquiescence’ I am damn proud someone is speaking. Someone is saying preemptive unilateral haughtiness can have unforeseen cirucumstances in the future of mankind. Oh it’s Gore? Then Parmendra et al will hopefully work very hard to buck the similar precedence. And by gawd teach Al some salsa |
