Lifelong Dem in a red state - quite a challenge. I originally was looking toward H. Clinton, but am now leaning the Obama way. I'm pro-choice, pro-environment and unconditionally opposed to the Iraq disaster (absolutely support the troops, want them out before any more are senselessly killed). I believe Clinton will have a huge struggle if she wins the nomination. Like it or not, appearance counts for a male or female president, and men have more latitude as to what is acceptable. Women also have more of a perception problem: A man may be "stern" while a woman is "bitchy"; a man is "flexible," a woman "indecisive"; a man "takes action" while a woman is "controlling." Women in business have come a long way in disproving this image, but I fear the world stage will be much more critical.
Long story short, I think Hilary is becoming more concerned about Obama's rising support and is responding with less grace and less innovation. This is going to be a dirty, dirty race, and I hope Obama has the tenacity to be (somewhat) above the fray. I believe, in the privacy of the voting booth, he will draw Republicans of color, women who prefer his views on family issues and those who are tired of this war that looks hopeless.
That said, Edwards would be my runner-up. I'm hoping for the day Jon Stewart runs - he would be a kick-*** president.

John McCain. However, both the Republicans and Democrats are going to shoot themself in the foot by nominating Rudy, and the Democrats will nominate unelectable Obama. Now, if the Republicans nominate Rudy, and the Dems nominate Hillary, then she will win.
Why am I for McCain? first of all, I am a OIF vet. I am against the war in Iraq. How ever, we are going to be there a long time. We may as well have a Military veteran of John McCains caliber, that knows how to command and run the military. None of the other candidates think they can do it, but I have seen none on either side that know how to run the military.

Hillary Clinton has the experience in the White House, the intelligence and presumed network of excellent staff which she could inherit from Bill Clinton.
VOTE for your choice as US President on my 360 degrees blog and know who will likely win.

"It won't be a socialist."
I assume you're implying that you won't be voting for a socialist, which will put you solidly in the minority. Given that the media will once again manage to ignore everyone but Democrats and Republicans, it almost certainly *will* be a socialist who gets elected.

Women will vote for Hillary because she is a woman rather than whether or not she can be a leader.
Blacks will vote for Obama because he is part black and not becuase he can lead. (Listen to his recent speeches, he's not answering a single question.)
I will most likely vote for McCane.

First of all, it is much too early in the process to make that decision. I need more information from each and every candidate that has thrown his/her hat into the ring.

Tom Tancredo
He believes in no amnesty for illegals.
He will actually do something about our immigration situation.
