1. Beware the cockyness
I want Edwards to win too.

But it's stil a bit early, isn't it?

The con slime machine has barely warmed up. And Edwards hasn't even won the nomination yet. It's still all about Clinton and Obama as far as the media is concerned.

4. We need to be MORE cocky and self-assured
The GOPhers are constantly trying to invoke our innate defeatism and we help them by
stepping in and doing the old "let's not get our hopes up" stuff.

We need to be more certain, focused and self-assured, like the dickheads are.

3. First MCCain's chances will fade, then Giuliani's. I think the right-wing fix is in for Romney.

5. Yep, McCain's probably gone already

and Guiliani's got too much baggage. The only thing I'm not sure about is Romney. His Mormonism might be his downfall with the Christian base. I'm thinking they're gearing up Thompson for a run. :shrug:

6. If there was a viable Dominionist running (that is if Huckabee or Brownback stood a chance),
I think the fundamentalists would back an Evangelical Protestant over a Mormon, but neither McCain, nor Giuliani, nor Fred Thompson seems to hold much appeal for the Christian far-right.

Since no Dominionist has broken out of the Repu second tier, I think the Christian far-right would support a once-married faith-on-his-sleeve Mormon over the pack of adulterers in the Repu top tier of candidates.

7. That's a possibility.

It's hard for me to figure the Christian mindset when it comes to Mormonism. Adultery vs false disciples? I don't know ROFL.

oops, better clarify -- that's RW Christian mindset. I don't want to offend anyone.
