1. Among the realistic possibilities, Warner.

2. McCain is a man totally without basic decency of scruples.

Republicans

1. Whom do you support for the Republican Nomination in 2008?
2. Which Democrat would you most want to NOT get the Democratic Nomination in 2008?


1. George Allen
2. Mark Warner

Good choices.

Allen is the best of the Republicans while Warner the best of the Democrats.

Both will have a problem with what I suspect is going to be a major issue in 2008: illegal immigration.

The Republicans are really badly split on immigration.

Wall Street favors pretty much favors unlimited immigrations whereas Main Street favors stopping illegal immigration and expelling illegal immigrants.

While Main Street has the voters, Wall Street has the money.

So far Bush has really antagonized many in the border states which his amnesty proposal (which he chooses to not call amnesty).

Bush's failure to beef up border security, even though authorized by Congress is also angering many,

If the Democrats had half a brain they would take advantage of this by comming together and denouncing illegal immigration.  (I wont hold my breath, though.)

Interestingly enough, Hillary Clinton came close to this about a month ago.
