President in 2008?

[danwxman]

I think the primary for the Dems may be similar to 2004 with angry Democrats orginially backing a liberal (Dean), but as the season goes on they will go to somebody more moderate, and hopefully with more charisma than Kerry (Mark Warner?).

Dean is more moderate than Kerry, with the exception of Iraq.

No.

Rice carries too much baggage. Santorum is too far-right.

There are Republicans that could win in 2008, but that is not the combo.

Now, I am not trying to be smart here, I am honestly seeking an answer to this question:
What is it then about Santourum, that the people of PA would elect him? Yes RS is VERY conservative.  So why is he the Senator of PA?

I was raised in Erie, PA. which is very democratic and my curiosity is up.
My enquiring mind wants to know,
Wildflower

He's young and attractive and the last time he was up for re-election, the Democrats ran a total loser against him along with the worst campaign in PA history.

I have one thing to say. George Voinovich as either Presidential or Vice Presidential Nominee. This is his voting record here:

He seems to be Conservative enough to please the Right while appealing to the Moderates he could also help carry Ohio and he is loved in the Cleveland area.

Everybody I know from Ohio hates the guy....but I guess he did get re-elected so eh...

You know tommorow ads will be run in California urging Congress to allow foreign born Americans to run for president.

If this works than it could be interesting in 2008.

I thought it takes a consitutional amendment? And wouldn't it take years to pass all the states?
