Unfortunately Huckabee won't ever break into the top tier, so it probably will be Gulianni as the lesser of two evils. One (Hillary), being extremely evil.

choices we have from the democrat side are....... well lets say that crack head comes to mind when I think of them.
They are so far out of touch with the majority of America that I can't understand the numbers they are getting. I think that they are getting the numbers because the people have either given up, or y are completly ignorant of who or what they are supporting.


I think they are getting those #'s b/c people are tired of the way it is with the war, health Ins, inflation, and income. I vote for both parties, but I too am tired of seeing what is happening to the average family in America. I also voted for Bush the first time, but I did not the second. It was not b/c his apponent was great, it was b/c he sucks. I think a lot of people are looking at the Rep. party in a neg. way b/c of the way things are and I beleive Bush is the worst thing the Rep. party has.

My hopes were dashed when Newt Gingrich decided not to run. I think he would have leaped above all of the current candidates. Yeah he has a shaky past, but all of them do.....well all of the media's main candidates anyway. Again, I'm not a republican, but I would say that I am definately not a democrat so looks like I'm going to have to settle with making a choice between people that just don't appeal to me.

Duramax, I agree, I do like Huckabee better than the others, but again, the media has completely left him out of the race so without his name being broadcast with the other 4, he might as well drop out with Brownback. It's sad, but it's true. :roll:

He keeps getting mentioned though. He has been mentioned as the only true right wing candidate by a lot of different news broadcasts. My hopes for him becoming president are not high, but I'm really holding out for him becoming a Vice presidential candidate.

Ron Paul is our man. He believes like our founding fathers, and he has a voting record in congress to prove it. check out his website ronpaul2008.com
Fred voted with the anti's on gun control when he was a US senator. Almost every candidate running is for one world government. Take a little time and research these people. there is no excuse not to because of the internet.

Ditto. Times have changed since the times of our founding fathers, for better or worse. When Neil Boortz (a libertarian like myself) says Ron Paul is out there, that isn't a good sign. Huckabee is the only candidate that I truely believe is in this race for the betterment of America, as opposed to having personal motives. But that doesn't get you money from lobby organizations, and we all know that elections are won with their help.

I sure hope he can get some support. Keep your fingers crossed.....it's still early if he'll just hang in there and not do what Brownback did. I liked Brownback better than Guliani personally. But I guess I will have to vote for who ever I can to prevent Hillary or Obama from getting it.

Harold Ford Jr. if he were running. He is the closest thing to a rational person in their party.

I cringe to think about it. :(

Don't think I could consiously vote for any of them. :?

Would just have to leave it up to fate and just fill in Han Solo on the blank spot.
