2008 Predications

[mikeyc]

I promised my 2008 predictions :-)  here goes....well, at least the Presidential candidates.

With Republicans, I can see:
Jeb Bush (Florida), Norm Coleman (Minnesota), Liddy Dole (North Carolina), Bill Frist (Tennessee), Rudy Giuliani (New York), George Pataki (New York), Condi Rice (California), Tom Ridge (Pennsylvania), Arnold Schwarzenegger (California - only if Orrin Hatch's wishes come true :-), Tommy Thompson (Wisconsin), JC Watts (Oklahoma)

John McCain (Arizona) will run as an Independent.

For Democrats:

Hillary Clinton (New York), John Edwards (North Carolina), Harold Ford (Tennessee), Al Franken (Minnesota), Al Gore (Tennessee), John Kerry (Massachusetts), Dennis Kucinich (Ohio), Bill Richardson (New Mexico), Tom Vilsack (Iowa)

For Green:
yes, Michael Moore........and Ralph Nader

predictions:
This one is kinda tough and too early (overall it's too early anyways :-)  But I see a few scenarios:

-Jeb Bush vs. Hillary Clinton (this one I cannot pick at all.....)
-Hillary Clinton vs. Bill Frist (Hillary would win slightly)
-Hillary Clinton vs. Rudy Giuliani (Rudy would win)
-Hillary Clinton vs. George Pataki (Hillary would win)
-Hillary Clinton vs. Condi Rice (unfortunately I really think Condi can't beat Hillary)

Al Franken......I can honestly see it.  I never said he'll capture the candidacy, but I can see him as a nominee.  Or is it the other way around :-)

too late into the night :-) - Franken will be amongst the group of Democrats, but I can't see him being the front forerunner
