But she's not very attractive, and she's a woman no one has heard of. There's also the Gov. of New Mexico who people are putting a lot of buzz around. He might just run, but his name is skipping me for a second. Vilsak I don't think I would support. We might win the Gov. seat's back in Col. and NY in 06, but that won't do us too much good for 08.

But i do agree that Obama needs to get a few more years under his belt. Does anybody know of any Govenors that could be boosted up in the mean time.

But I don't think this is the year for her. I do think that she will be our first woman president. (Yea!) I think she is playing it safe because there seems to be a large flux in the wrong direction. She NEEDS to play both sides. But I think she should wait a cycle. Maybe she doesn't. And I am pretty conservative as far as when to make a move. I also want Obama to run. But again - not this year. Maybe Edwards will be a good candidate. When he's done with his two terms, Hillary can run and when she has sufficiently changed the world, Obama can take over! Its practically in the bag!!!!!

What do u all think about this? If she did run, and she got the nomination, do you think she would be able to win, or do u think there is a better candidate?

Are they anonymous? I do not believe that a parent would give his or her child the name Chief" or "Clause" as a first name. So why should "they" have the option to remain anonymous, while the rest of "us" cannot? I am NOT Republican and could care less about the Republican party. Anonymity is an Internet commodity that allows one to express his or her own beliefs freely without scrutiny from the right, or the left. What does a name matter when ideas are expressed? Because "Clause" and "Chief" are still in hiding, I will take the first step and "come out of the closet," so to speak, and reveal my real name: Ed. Hannah:

None of this mysterious 'Untitled' or 'Scifi' or random 'republican' bull. I'm not talking about Chief or Claus, because if you know who 'we' are, you know who 'they' are. But one needs to take responsibility for one's opinions, doesn't one. Ok - so next time, keep the debate going strong like you have been, but if you are afraid of persecution for your beliefs, get out of the political game! If you want to participate in a REAL political debates, I wont stand for anonymity!!! NOW GET BACK OUT THERE AND USE YOUR B***!

I believe that every politician will say and do what they want in order to get elected. It is my belief that abortion should not be used as a means of birth control. But, to say that my beliefs should be applied to everyone is selfish. If Republicans and Democrats feel that it is important to only point out parts of the Bible that work for them, then I want to have nothing to do with either party. For this reason, I switched parties four years ago: from Republican to Democrat. The Supreme Court has found that it is not the responsibility of government to decide what women can and cannot do with their bodies. Scientific fact: a fetus less than six months typically cannot live on its own; therefore it cannot be considered a child. Spiritually; a fetus is an unborn child that is a life force created by god; therefore, it can be considered murder. There are two sides to every story. I believe in both sides of the issue, but, again, my beliefs are not always right. I once heard someone say, "this country is becoming dumber, but more opinionated." Leave faith to religion and let science dictate our laws. Laws are based on reason, not faith. If laws were based on faith, we would live in a pre-war Afghanistan-type of society (better yet, an England that defined laws according to one religion in the early 17th century, forcing the Pilgrims to travel to America, and eventually establishing a society based on freedom of religion with separation of church and state). No one is forcing someone who doesn't believe in having an abortion to have one, are they? Hillary is trying to get elected.
