 Presidental Election 2008 Thoughts...
Current mood: calm
If Condoleeza Rice does not step in and vie for the republican nomination, my vote will go to Gov. Mitt Romney (R) -MA.
In all realism the only two people that I can see winning the presidency from the republican side would be Condi or John McCain. Because the republican's support from moderates and democrats has been waning with the obvious push for the religious conservative turnout in '04, republicans now have to put up someone who can bring out enough of the people on the right but still be moderate enough to unite the party and attract independant and democratic voters. No one will do this better than Senator John McCain of Arizona. He's socially and foreign policy-wise conservative, yet seems to exhibit alot of restraint to take the same edge on alot of domestic issues that might lessen the little guy's chance in this country. He's appealing to men & women alike for his service for the country, however I question how easy he will have it given the distance he has placed him self from the "rank and file" republican establishment.
Yet according to the data I have enclosed below Bill Frist holds a slight edge right now in the preliminary rounds of the next republican nomination process. However, it is my belief that Sen. Frist will not garner enough support of moderates and women within the party to move on to the final round. Gov. Romney with his looks, youth, and proven track record as governor just may give Sen. McCain the fight similar to what we saw in 2000 when the two frontrunners had to take on the southern voting bloc. This show could only be spoiled if Secretary Rice decides to run for president. This scenario would probably break it down between McCain and Rice upon which you could see a Rice/McCain Republican ticket which would be virtually unbeatable. But what am I talking about Im just a little guy babbling on and on about nothing.
I hope Everyone is having a great day, and remember to always question your authority and those who want to be your authority. It is your American right to be involved in every bit of the process. Those soldiers over there are not dying in vain.
God Bless.
