Handicapping 2008, or the Frist-Kerry buzz kill

  • Count one more for Feingold

    Exactly! Why should we settle for less... when there are principled candidates available, who are not afraid to say exactly what they stands for?

    In fact, I posted something myself about this very issue the other day, pairing Russ Feingold with John Conyers. Imagine that ticket! Two-- count 'em-- two candidates with significant experience, both unafraid to take a principled stand. Could the GOP that chose GWB over McCain possibly match that?

    If you want to read the rest of my reasoning, you'll find it here: http://blogs.salon.com/0004000/2006/02/23.html#a422, along with my "litmus test."

    I will admit, though, that Warner/Obama may have more charisma. Still, why not at least start the discussion with substance, and leave the horse race for later on?
