He couldn't pick a better leader or a better person. Powell also has a lot of experience, especially with foreign policy. Most importantly, it shows that Obama is serious about bipartisan cooperation by picking a Republican running mate, but not one of the crazy ones.DMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16788805472590808583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-975049123092965240.post-78510056796560823062008-01-29T14:08:00.000-06:002008-01-29T14:08:00.000-06:00Not sure why you referred to Clinton as the front-...Not sure why you referred to Clinton as the front-runner for the Democrats.<BR/><BR/>There really is no one clear "front-runner." And Obama currently has more actual votes and more delegates than Clinton.<BR/><BR/>I'm hoping for an Obama vs. Romney scenario. That would be great.christopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16105679597290569714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-975049123092965240.post-11507866150304503802008-01-28T22:59:00.000-06:002008-01-28T22:59:00.000-06:00I've been thinking Huckabee was going to run as th...I've been thinking Huckabee was going to run as the Republican VP ticket since he petered off after Iowa. He has the potential to influence a large number of fundamentalist evangelical conservatives, and could bolster McCain's more centrist leanings.<BR/><BR/>It will be stupid move for the Democrats to favor Hillary merely because she pulls more support now. I'm not sure they understand the force that nega-voters will be if Clinton gets the Democrats nomination. Obviously I'm stuck inside of my own world views, but it seems to me Obama has a lot more power to woo the moderate conservatives.<BR/><BR/>It's going to be fun to watch and talk about, that is for sure!Drewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11836226057288580616noreply@blogger.com
