Edited on Tue Aug-21-07 09:45 AM by Nimrod2005
Then Obama wins SC...By then, it will be all over for Hillary...Obama will pick Richardson early on as his VP!!! The rest will be history(Richardson will win NV, solidifying his strong showing in the heavily hispanic western states).

The Obama/Richardson ticket will be the strongest Democratic ticket the party has EVER nominated - The GOP will win no more than five states in the general!!!

Mark my thread.

3. Gore enters race. Wins IA, NH and SC handily. Picks Obama as VP and Edwards as AG.
Hillary returns to Senate.

7. sounds plausible. But I believe Obama will take it all. Richardson as VP sounds plausible as well.

10. I'd be more than okay with Obama/Richardson, but I'd rather have Gore/Obama.
Obama is too weak on the environment for me.

11. I don't know how this will play out, but Opposition Research has yet to surface regarding BO
Opposition research has been ongoing regarding all the candidates, but given the background and experience of Edwards and Clinton there is likely nothing significiant out there that has not already been used against them in their prior campaigns.

Obama does not have the same immunity.

Even so, I suspect that Repubs have reams of material to use against HRC tying her to Bill Clinton that they want to use to motivate their base in the General Election.

Edwards would be the least susceptible to opposition research points being scored, and the issues that Edwards is raising will resonate with the economically pressed and those seeking an end to this war in Iraq.

Should be interesting.

13. Bookmarked
We will see, but my money is on Hillary. I'm not a fan, but she has the name, the money, and the machine behind her.

14. And then Nicole Kidman announces her marriage to Karmadillo.
I'm at the point where I'm rooting for Emma Goldman, but if that's not going to happen, Hillary seems the most likely winner. What the corporate media then does to her (or any nominated Dem) will give the Republicans a good shot despite their amazing criminality. I doubt any of the leading candidates would attempt to dismantle the Empire and restore the Republic should they win, but I think Clinton will at least competently manage our ongoing decline and maybe get a few kids decent healthcare.

17. Edwards has already lost Iowa
It's inevitable. He doesn't have the money to compete with Hillary or Obama once they finish laying the groundwork in the other states are focus their organizations/warchests on Iowa/NH/SC.

He's doomed unless something dramatic happens to one or the other.
