What about Bill Frist?

I consider him the nomination winner by default. If nobody else gets any momentum then Frist is the guy, but he is a Senator and senators aren't great in Presidential elections. I think a big name like Bush or Giuliani would knock him out. I'm not sure about the establishment getting behind Giuliani though.

What about Bill Frist?

PEOPLE NEED TO STOP SAYING THIS.

Seriously, I feel cold and nauseous just thinking about it.

[Plus, what if it's like Beetlejuice, and by saying it we're making it happen? WHY TEMPT FATE???]

Frist doesn't strike me as a very charismatic guy, I think he'd be very defeatable. Plus he's a senator which means there's a big track record of votes that can be used against him fairly and unfairly.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Frist hasn't been doing that well. On the other hand, I thought NO WAY someone as boneheaded, inexperienced, and politically vulnerable as George W. Bush would get elected.

I wish I could think this, but I just don't know who the Dems have right now. I mean, Hillary?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Sorry, Jess. I just use my parents as a Republican gauge--they're pretty typical. They loved and voted for W (although the shine is coming off him in my mom's eyes). And, they both really dig Frist. Of course, he is their senator, but I still think they're a fairly accurate gauge.

I wish Barbara Boxer or Barak Obama were being talked about as viable candidates. Though really, I'd settle for a groundswell of McCain support among the centrist Republicans.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

We don't have any possible horses in the race, do we?

I actually do like Edwards a lot.

I just think we're not going to win anything at all. All my positive hopes and dreams have been dashed.

We need to quit dicking around with senators and find a governor.

Any good Democratic governors spring to mind?

Obama has said repeatedly that he will not run in '08 and, this may be naive, I believe him.
