I do agree with the sentiment that Clinton might railroad herself through to the nomination. Then again, it also seemed that way about Dean a few years back, until he made his pteryldactyl scream.
I like Obama, and given the choice between him, Clinton, or Edwards, I'll take Obama. Still, I'm not sure if he's electable, given what I said, which is kinda of sad, because he is not only smart and saavy, but might also be able to re-energize the country in a positive manner. I'd like to see Richardson of New Mexico make a serious run ... but I wonder if Clinton has stolen any thunder he may have had.
Think we'll see any surprises on the Republican side? I wish Christie Todd Whitman would run. She's one of the few Republicans I'd vote for ... though I'd imagine she'd get crushed.
At least Aussie politics seem even more whacked than what we've got in the US. John Howard v. Kevin Rudd? That's more like Giant Douche v. Turd Sandwich.
