Martok how you been?

The Bush admins corruption was far more devious in my opinion, maksed under the patriot act they certainly pissed on civil liberties.... And I am still very bothered over the valerie plame wmd fiasco.

The clintons were a case of good old fashion greed, the bush admin have some fundementalists steering the adgenda which is a hell of a lot more scary then billy clinton lying under oath.

I dont think Hilary is going to get in anyway, too much baggage from the past, however given the field of democrats the other 2 front runners (obama and edwards) have very little political expirence.

Edwards isn't going to get as many votes as he hoped for.

I think Obama will get it, but go out like Robert Kennedy.

If he gains the nomination, I certainly hope that isn't the case. Assassination is so sixties.

Err, what did they say about the other candidaes and previous presidents ?

I'd consider 45% low, personally.

Killing Obama would be disgraceful.

on a side note, lately i've been rooting for Romney. I believe that Governors make better Presidents than Congressmen?????? lets review it. anybody up for it?

He was my Govenor in MA and if anyone can manage to get things done with the opposition party controlling the legislature Romney can. He got hamstrung in MA because its a very liberal state (perhaps the most) and he is a moderate.

I think he is a good candidate but his lack of foreign policy expirence is worrisome given current conditions, I also think his faith will be an issue in traditional southern red states.

Only half? Thats distressing

It dont matter anyway as none of these Dems stand a snowballs chance in hell of being elected. Look for a Rep pres and a dem congress in 08.

All I have to say is this: only half?

Really. I've no wish to see another Bush or Clinton in the white house after '08.

The Clintons are just so corrupt and power hungry.

Given the current Dem field, it seems likely Hillary will probably get the nomination - and make it real easy for the GOP candidate. I'd rather Obama - he may be even more liberal and socialist, but he doesn't seem so low and dirty.

I'm holding out for Fred Thompson - a real conservative, dangnabit. No Rudy 'Public Funding For Abortion' Guliani (but guns are to be regulated and consficated, apparently) or John 'Free what?' McCain for me. And no Mitt '2nd Amendment=hunting!' Romney either.
