Too me, it seems like elections are a pendulum that swings back and forth.
After 8 years of a republican, 8 years of a democrat......
I am guessing it will not take too much to win the next 2 elections. Just like the President and his republicans (who control the entire federal government) mess up and make the country worse. Most Americans will not be happy with what they see. They will want a change and Democrats will give them that change. Hence, we win the election.
you're absolutely correct.
the only way the Democrats can lose in 2008 is to allow people who advertise their hatred of america with quotes like "America: Just a nation of two hundred million used car salesmen with all the money we need to buy guns and no qualms about killing anybody else in the world who tries to make us uncomfortable" to dominate the nominating process, as has happened too many times in the past.
let me make my prediction now: the next president of the united states will be Senator Hillary Clinton.
first, the public will have a great deal of Bush fatigue by 2008 (his poll numbers are already the lowest on record for a president at this stage of his presidency). after 8 years of Republicans taking from the poor to give to the rich, people will be more than ready for a change.
second, those poor deluded souls in our party who thought someone who has a 30-year record of betraying our interests to anyone he could find to betray them to would be seen by the
general electorate as "strong on defense"(!) will have no one else to vote for. and, by running to the center, where most americans are, always have been, and always will be, Senator Clinton will win the general election handily.
