I would have to say Al Gore..If he was to run again i would bet that he would have one hell of a chance to be elected..I bet he would love to go into office and fix the presidents screw ups..

Best at what? Many of the prospective candidates possess some attribute that would make them somewhat desirable to the Democrat voter, but I don't see any one individual that would appeal to the full spectrum of Democrats, much less the much needed moderate vote. I think the Democrats need to rethink their entire approach and look for a Lieberman or, yes, as funny as it seems, a John McCain.

Who ever toes the party line at least 110% (so scratch those like Lieberman) and who appeals to the coward fringe that wants to cut and run from the terror war, and he must hate Bush more than he loves life, family, or country.

None that are in office,you can't trust either the Democrats or Republicans!! I would vote for "Lou Dobbs" if he would run. He seems to be the only one that would honestly be for the average American!!!!!!!!!

People I think would be strong candidates:
1) Bill Richardson - governor of New Mexico, former U.N. Ambassador and Secretary of Energy
2) Evan Bayh - Indiana Senator and former governor

Barney the Purple Dinosaur.
I love you, you love me, we're a happy family...if family to you means 2 gay dads and a bunch of children from unwed crack addicted welfare moms.
Barney would not fight terroists either- just like the libs.
He is their perfect candidate.

I wish Colin Powell would flip the other side and we would have a saavy foreign relations president.....he stands as a conservative democrat anyway.....I think he is the best...when Bush used him to get votes and intended to throw him out the first time Powell opposed him shows what a ..............Bush is!!!!!
