If you take the war off the table then the second biggest hotbed issue would be illegal immigration. I suspect this will become a major focus of the campaign as many people in the country seem to not only be paying attention to it, but have strong opinions regarding it.
Truth: Not to rain on your parade there, but how is the Democrats version of staying the course any different than the Bush administration doing the same thing? If the Democrats are not going to withdraw the troops, then by definition they are staying the course.

No, the Democrat Debate you can't promises that your going to have the troops all out by 5 years. Tim Russet will get you on ,"Meet the Press" and bring anything you say up to you. you can't make a promise if you don't know the circumstances that are happening there in Iraq. You just can't predict what will be going on and you just can't make promises and be a good President, you can hope that they can all come home by 2 years but you just can't promise the future. What is some other big foreign country would come into Iraq and start figting with the Iraq people against our troops , then you couldn't up and leave.
That is what happened in 2006 the Senators thought they could get enough votes to start bringing our troops home but the Republicans didn't live up to their word about Bush and now you have the people wanting the Democrats to vote to override Bush, but the Republicans still hold a majority of over 40 % so that is causing people to wonder why their not bringing the troops home, you just can't get a Republican to vote against their party in the White house.

Likely will be something that is trivial in the longrun but something that will stir interest in the public.
There's healthcare and lack of insurance, the housing problem and collapse of the morgage industry, price of oil, a national energy policy (which incidently Bush harped that Clinton didn't have and that's the last we heard Bush think about the subject), possible inflation, the dipolmatic damage and control to various countries around the world, the influx of hispanics coming into the country, wages, invasion of privacy with the warrantless wire tapping, the collapse of the infratructure of this country in the form of roads, bridges and dams.
But, it's be something silly and after whoever is elected, forgotten.

Not so much.
I have a gut feeling that A BIG issue will be the "Promise to return the troupes", "near immediately" which was the cry / claim of the DEMS in 2003-2004!!!
Another issue will be JUST HOW MUCH FARTHER TO THE LEFT, ARE YOU GOING TO TAKE US??? HOW much more of this rhetoric are you going to cram down our throats, before you "either shi# or get off the pot" ???
Even an ol' 'medium rare steak country boy' like me, likes some potatoes, tomatoes, lettuse, apples, oranges OCCASIONALLY !!!

We do not know for real who is in the lead because the media and polling organizations are only promoting those candidates that are acceptable to corporate America .
Most people if you asked them on the street have no clue who is even running .
They watch the television and to date none of the real candidates have gotten any positive press coverage .

Democrats didn't lie, they adjusted. IF anyone lied it was the current administration.
What would you rather have, someone who stays the course until he falls off a cliff, or someone who has the brains to adjust to changing situations?
Better that they tell the truth now, before next year's elections.

Oh, the usual. The Democratic candidate will try to put as much distance between him/herself and the left wing as possible. The Republican candidate will try to prove his right wing credentials.
It will most likely be Hillary for the Democrats. She has already begun her turn to the right.
Still too early to know who the Republican candidate will be.
