Hola!

The Democrats are more or less stupid in national politics. Democrats more or less get elected when the Republican is very unpopular (see 1980 and 1992)

1992 Clinton/Gore broke the mold because both men were from the South, fairly good looking men who were very articulate. Thus Clinton won states that no other Democrat can in the deep south.

2008, find someone young, handsome and popular. Find a personable personality who can talk to the voters. Preferrably from the south or midwest. Nominate a Governor, not a Senator.

If the donkeys nominate Hillary, she'll win Massachuttes, New York, Vermont and possibly one or two other states. The American people did not like John Kerry either, he was just the only alternative to Bush. IF John Edwards was popular in North Carolina (he's not) and had at least 10 years Washington experience (he doesn't) he would be fine (but he's not).

Republicans don't have anybody good on their side either. 2008 might be the year we elect someone from outside the mainstream like Carter in 1976. And, be prepared to see every person who has a hat to throw it in the ring.

My two bits.
