...according to a Canmephian (and declared Democrat). EOY 2007 update.
Democrat (because it's a sorry lot):
- Barack Obama -- He's a fresh new Senator from Illinois. Too fresh. So fresh he's undercooked green. Too random and not much history to consider.
- Hillary Clinton -- Senator from NY and married to former President Bill "Practice Safe Sax" Clinton. If she wins, he goes back in. I'm all for a woman and/or a black candidate to go into the White House, but Hillary isn't that woman, because of Bill. AWKWARD!
- Dennis Kucinich -- US Representative from Ohio. Press has started to notice him, and there's been alot of good press about him as of late. It made me wonder if he was a Republican. This one has to be the best one out there.
- Christopher Dodd -- US Senator from Connecticut. Just shot down the FISA bill that would of granted the telecom companies immunity from tapping Internet connections w/o a warrant under NSA direction. He's better off in the Senate, where he has more power and influence.
- Joe Biden, John Edwards, Mike Gravel, and Bill Richardson -- Not enough press to consider.
Republican (you might as well scrap this party):
- Rudy Giuliani -- Former mayor from NYC. Has been associating everything to 9-11, and has a ton of negative press. Pass.
- Mike Huckabee -- Former governor of Arkansas. Heavy into religion. Thinks "turn the other cheek" should apply everywhere. Linked to a released, reoffending rapist turned murderer. Not only pass, but shoot on sight. Deserves to be slapped with a copy of the First Amendment wrapped around a lead brick.
- John McCain -- US Senator from Arizona. Position changes so much his spin flings off campaign workers indiscrimately. Pass.
- Ron Paul -- US Representative from Texas. Previously ran once as Libertarian but has been solidly Republican. Ideas are so crazy they might actually work. So refreshing that he keeps raking in donations. He's got to be the republican presidental nominee. He may be mad but there is method to it.
- Mitt Romney -- former governor of Massachusettes. Folks are still confused over his religion (he's a Mormon). Come on, Howard Taylor (Schlock Mercenary) is a Mormon, and he's normal! We may have to pass him on it.
- Fred Thomspon -- Former US Senator and actor. A real life Ronald Regan. Maybe too real. Watch this guy. He may be nuts -- infact, suffering from Jim Carrey Avatar Syndrome.
There are third party canidates, but no press on them.
