Title: Re:Who will run in '08-Democrats Post by: King on August 09, 2004, 09:49:41 PM Top Picks:
John Edwards Hillary Clinton Dennis Kucinich Title: Re:Who will run in '08-Democrats Post by: ijohn57s on August 09, 2004, 09:50:41 PM Top Picks: John Edwards Hillary Clinton Dennis Kucinich Do you think Dean will run again? Title: Re:Who will run in '08-Democrats Post by: Gabu on August 09, 2004, 09:51:42 PM This is a silly question; John Kerry will be running for re-election. :)
Seriously though, probably John Edwards, Howard Dean, Hillary Clinton, and Dennis Kucinich. I'd predict that Edwards would win.

I'd predict that Edwards would win. The only fear I have is that Edwards won't be President if Kerry wins or not...Edwards will end up like Lieberman in 08 primaries... Title: Re:Who will run in '08-Democrats Post by: Gabu on August 09, 2004, 10:18:51 PM I doubt it. Edwards oozes charisma and charm. Lieberman... is Lieberman.

I could see that happening but it wouldn't be as strong as a candidacy as it was this past primary. Title: Re:Who will run in '08-Democrats Post by: TeePee4Prez on August 10, 2004, 01:25:38 AM Dark horse: Barack Obama.
Title: Re:Who will run in '08-Democrats Post by: Keystone Phil on August 10, 2004, 01:32:29 AM Dark horse: Barack Obama. He'd have to start running in mid 2007. That means only about 2 years as a Senator and already a Presidential candidate? Title: Re:Who will run in '08-Democrats Post by: Gabu on August 10, 2004, 01:38:09 AM John Edwards succeeded in doing so and pulling it off.
Title: Re:Who will run in '08-Democrats Post by: Keystone Phil on August 10, 2004, 01:39:00 AM John Edwards succeeded in doing so and pulling it off. Edwards has been a Senator for about 6 years now, not 2 years. And last time I checked, he's running for VP, not President and still hasn't won that yet. Title: Re:Who will run in '08-Democrats Post by: Gabu on August 10, 2004, 01:43:43 AM Wasn't he only in his first term? I thought he was.
And I meant he was able to run a fairly successful campaign in the Democratic primary, given that he was easily in second place, not that he became President. Title: Re:Who will run in '08-Democrats Post by: Keystone Phil on August 10, 2004, 01:55:52 AM Wasn't he only in his first term? I thought he was. Yes he's in his first term but he's been in the Senate for almost 6 years now. Obama would only be a Senator for about a year and a half or two years if he ran in '08. Title: Re:Who will run in '08-Democrats Post by: Gabu on August 10, 2004, 01:57:52 AM Oh, okay. I stand corrected.
Title: Re:Who will run in '08-Democrats Post by: Fritz on August 10, 2004, 07:45:14 AM Gore will never run again.
Dean and/or Kucinich may run, but will never get nominated. Obama- 2012, maybe, at the earliest. If Kerry loses this time, I say it will between Hillary and John Edwards for the Democrat nomination in 08. Hard to say which one would get the nomination, I think it would be a real battle. Title: Re:Who will run in '08-Democrats Post by: Michael Z on August 10, 2004, 09:29:39 AM If Kerry loses this year, I can envisage the following Dems running in 2008:
John Edwards Hillary Clinton Evan Bayh Bill Richardson Mark Warner John Breaux Joseph Biden Plus the usual array of fringe candidates (Sharpton, Kucinich, LaRouche, Vermin Supreme, et al). Title: Re:Who will run in '08-Democrats Post by: Keystone Phil on August 10, 2004, 09:36:50 AM If Kerry loses this year, I can envisage the following Dems running in 2008: John Breaux Joseph Biden Biden is going to be 66 in 2008 (I don't think he'll run for President at that age) and I believe Breaux (my second favorite Dem in the Senate :) ) is retiring from politics.

Title: Re: Who will run in '08-Democrats Post by: Psychic Octopus on February 19, 2009, 10:24:14 PM Hillary Clinton-and lose
to Barack Obama, with Edwards in Third. John Edwards will be mentioned as a VP candidate but then be passed over to the public discovering his sex scandal during the Beijing Olympics, In which a olympian will win 8 gold medals. Imagine if I said this three years ago, no one, and I mean no one, would believe me.

No matter how good he is, after a while he will look like a fool.

But Gravel will capture our hearts with his innovative Youtube ads. Wow, I was rather prescient, wasn't I? NOTE: Attempts to check the validity of this quote may be hazardous to your health.

Wow, Phil made two completely reasonable statements, four years ago, that turned out to be incorrect. What a hack! |
