Regardless of whether I agree or disagree, I think that you have hit the nail on the head. I don't see any other candidates that I think can win the party nominations, or the primaries. I would say, with 95% certainty, that those will be the two left standing come next fall. We'll see if you're right!
And, at this point, I don't think either of them would be a terrible choice for president. But the campaign trail is long...

Obama will lose a lot of the Democrat vote, only God knows why but Jewish people are usually democrats. Obama used to be a Muslim and made comments this week that the Palestinian people have suffered the most out of the whole world at the hands of the Jews. He has already lost 20 million people. Giulianni is a fiscal conservative and a conservative on foreign policy, but is also pro-choice. Just for being pro choice he will have quite a big chunk of the vote for democrats because they are pro choice crowd. He won't lose the Christian vote either (Christians should also be pro-choice, Genesis 2:7, the breath of life) because the Christians would never vote for a democrat who wants to ban Christianity in public example Alabama court house. So Giulianni has the best chance, as he is both conservative and moderate.

Obama definitely has the potential of being a uniter. He has loads of charm and brains, and he never sends a divisive message. I am less sure of Giuliani. If you look at his record as mayor of New York City, you will find that he antagonized a lot of people. If it wasn't for 9/11, and his stand-up performance for a couple of months after that, Giuliani wouldn't even have a prayer of being a candidate for anything.

In all truth Giuliani is the only moderate-enough candidate that I think even some liberals can get behind. There really isn't a liberal candidate that conservatives like. I could be wrong though. All I ever hear is how they're all socialist or communist or gay.

Peter Pan and Tinkerbell.
Seriously. Unity will not come from the top. It'll come when people are happier about the choices government makes; and the people as so divided about what groups see as "right" I doubt there will be much unity for a long time.

Depends on what you mean by united. If you mean get the pro-choice and pro-life people to agree --- no way. If you mean someone who can find a compromise on softer issues (e.g. taxes, welfare, foreign affairs), probably (of the declared candidates) Rudy (he's both Dem and Rep).

I really like Obama, as he seems like the only candidate who is sick of "business as usual" and he is very inspiring. I could live with Guliani, as anyone would be better than Bush.
