Vote in the Democratic Nomination Bracket competition
This is pretty cool. It's the final 64!

1. Not too many surprises in the first round
Highlights: 0% for Lieberman and 7% for Sharpton.
The latter I consider very disappointing.

2. 29.4% for Sharpton
He is ranked 7 which I think is way too high. He should be around 13-14.

13. I think Jen Granholm will beat her.
Though, Granholm is Canadian born.

3. I was disappointed with

the one with Mr. Bredesen. He's been doing a superb job as governor here in Tennessee. Does anybody know what his raiting is now?? I read in January it was 70% so I was wondering how he was doing. He recently went at the East Tn's Veteran home for the grand opening and he's also teaming up with Drug-Free America to try to help prevent teens using meth.

5. That was fun - thanks
Boy talk about a traditional rivalry -- it's Kennedy versus Rockefeller.

Gritty # 16 seed Zell Miller looks to be returning to reality versus top seed Hillary Clinton.

10. I think they want to get Hillary an easy win.
I think she might get bumped by Kucinich, which is unrealistic.

9. They would put Kucinich against Hillary... I'm still a Dennis believer!
Looks like that's what it's going to boil down to. Hillary versus Dennis on that top left bracket. Son of a buck! I like Hillary, but I like Dennis more! Once a progressive, always a progressive I guess.

14. No problem
I was amazed at the number of names I knew. Some are obscure like the Governor of Kansas and a former Representative from Texas.
