November 5, 200421 yr We all know that a ton of people, even many republicans voted for Kerry based solely on the "ABB" anybody but Bush premise, well Bush won't be running in 08 and the democrats won't be getting those ABB votes. Do the dems even have a chance to win the presidency within the next decade?
November 5, 200421 yr No, it's over, we're converting to a one party autocracy. You'll finally be able to live in your perfect Republican utopia. This is what you want to hear right?
November 5, 200421 yr The ABB is such a lame argument. Does the fact that not being Bush also register as having better policies than Bush? Limbaugh wins again.
November 5, 200421 yr or just think hillary is inferior (which she is) there are many great women out there ... she just isn't one of them
November 6, 200421 yr She can't win. We still have way to many people who think women inferior. 609337[/snapback] I wouldn't vote against the woman, I'd vote against Hillary. There's a difference.
November 6, 200421 yr problem was, the democrats chose the wrong guy. If it was Clark, Edwards, or Dean, Bush probably would have lost. Kerry had nothing. Hopefully John McCain runs in 08.

Hopefully John McCain runs in 08. 609367[/snapback] That is not a true statement, this country is not about to elect anyone as liberal as Kerry is, Dean or even Edwards, Clark may of had a chance, but this country spoke and more people elected Bush than in any other election ever If Dean were running this couldve been a landslide Forget about '08, how about '12 Bush v. B. Clinton :mischief2

Hopefully John McCain runs in 08. 609367[/snapback] america by and large is a very conservative nation. look at many of the policies set forth by this country and compare them to those in europe especially.

November 6, 200421 yr I still think Kerry was the best candidate for the Dems. He came close, but Bush is just a tough man to beat in this country. I actually think the Repubs are going to be in some difficulty when they have to send someone other than Bush out there in 2008.

November 6, 200421 yr graham is retired and withdrew from the presidency run. I think theyre gonna do what im hearing they are, look for young(younger) southern democrats, like the governors from indiana, virginia, and NM i believe.
November 6, 200421 yr Richardson from NM would be interesting. 609637[/snapback] He was on Hannity & Colmes about a year ago and even Hannity wasn't spitting his usual venom so you know that Richardson is good. :lol
November 6, 200421 yr I still think Kerry was the best candidate for the Dems.? He came close, but Bush is just a tough man to beat in this country.? I actually think the Repubs are going to be in some difficulty when they have to send someone other than Bush out there in 2008. 609556[/snapback] Bob Graham would have beat Dubya. Graham would have delivered FL. People still like him here and he's always gotten a lot of crossover vote. The silent majority that crushed Kerry would have stayed home if Graham were running. The dems still have not learned that nominatability is not the same thing as electability. 609563[/snapback] Please, Bob Graham. Have you ever heard Bob Graham speak? He's not terribly inspiring. MAYBE he would have won Florida, but plenty more states would've been a lost cause. LOL. Bob Graham.
November 6, 200421 yr problem was, the democrats chose the wrong guy.? If it was Clark, Edwards, or Dean, Bush probably would have lost.? Kerry had nothing. Hopefully John McCain runs in 08. 609367[/snapback] If it was Lieberman, the democrats would have had my vote. 609558[/snapback] I agree...I think he wouldve had the best chance of beating Bush...Dean wouldnt have had a chance after he transformed into the incredible hulk!! :blink: Who else would really like to see John McCain run?? :thumbup

Hopefully John McCain runs in 08. 609367[/snapback] If it was Lieberman, the democrats would have had my vote. 609558[/snapback] Yeah, but that's only cuz youre jewish...republican jews are a tiny, tiny proportion of the electorate. In fact, I'd bet that there are more anti-semitic dems who wouldn't vote for joe than republican jews. I think the dem candidates with the best chances of winning were Bob Graham (true antiwar, true southerner, true values, florida's 27 EV) and possibly Wes Clark.
November 7, 200421 yr I voted for Kerry twice (once in the Dem. Florida primary, once in the actual election). I knew he was the best choice out of all the Democratic candidates, and I would have picked Al Sharpton before Bush anyway.
