I think a clark/edwards ticket would be good. I never liked Kerry all that much, he was obviously better than the other option of course.
I would love to see a clinton/clinton ticket though :cheeky:
How about Jeb Bush/George Bush??
:D

You don't think the Bush family has fucked the country up enough already?

Oh dear God not a PNAC member. These people are seriously FUBAR.

No I am not PNAC, I am not opting for myself, and no I do not think the Bush family has fucked up MY country. I was mocking the clinton/clinton post.
But I am conservative and more than likely vote Republican.

Yes, I do know you are not PNAC or part of, but Jeb Bush is a member and he's a loony.
The neoconservatives are anything but conservative so avoid them at all costs.
Irving Kristol, who accepts the title of neoconservatism's “godfather,” has written that the neoconservative's goal is:
“to convert the Republican party, and American conservatism in general, against their respective wills, into a new kind of conservative politics suitable to governing a modern democracy.”

Personally, I don't think a majority of these candidates will even be in the running after 2 weeks of actual campaigning. John Kerry (bleh), Russ Feingold (too bad he couldn't win, too liberal), and Hilary Clinton (OMG WOMAN!) stand almost no chance. I also doubt that (to my chagrin) Wesley Clarke could win. I really think the only chance the Democrats have rests with a Gore/Edwards ticket. People don't hold the same strange and almost baseless hate for Gore they do for Hilary, but they do remember how he was basically screwed (and yes, people will think that now that they've seen how bad Bush fucked up, it's called revisionist history) and people didn't HATE Edwards like they did that fuckwad Kerry. I still don't think Edwards has enough pull to win himself, but he's a big boster. That'd be two Southern Democrats to help pull alittle more of that southern vote in (probably won't matter, but you never know, Carter pulled Georgia...) that's been so important lately. I really don't think any Democrat from north of the Mason Dixon line can win in the political climate we're in now. Maybe after 4/8 years of a southern democrat, but Southerners just have too much of a negative perception of northerners/democrats on the whole to get them elected unless they manage to pull the rest of the country.
Polling I've seen leads me to believe that at least right now, Gore could pull his home state of Tennessee, and Edwards would help him mightaly in NC/SC. If he could get those two states, and a majority of the west coast/north east, he'd stand a good chance. But that's really all I see there, because of the recent ineptitude of the democratic party in national elections.
