Strong Candidates

The Democratic Party is blessed with many strong candidates for President for 2008. John Edwards, former vice presidential candidate, has announced his intention to seek the White House. Edwards is a hard-working, intelligent, and caring man. Check out the John Edwards for President site.

Besides Edwards, Democrats have Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, and others. Democrats have a collection of talented people who certainly would do a much better job at leading this country than the present administration.

Republicans have some interesting candidates for the presidency --- Newt Gingrich (anti-women's reproduction rights, *married 3 times, House banking scandal, deadbeat Dad), Rudy Giuliani (*married 3 times, public adultery), Sam Brownback (anti-women's reproduction rights, Draconian views), John McCain (anti-women's reproduction rights, supports Bush like a lap dog, wants to continue the Iraq war into infinity), Tom Tancredo and Duncan Hunter (two anti-immigrant GOPers), Mitt Romney (twit), Tommy Thompson (please! no!), etc. As you can tell, I don't have any respect for the possible Republican candidates. The Republican party has done so much for Ohio (scandals, payoffs, ethics problems, job losses, etc.) and the country (war, war, war), that practically any Democrat could do better than any Republican.

(*Gingrich and Giuliani would run on a family values theme---- just don't look at their family values.)
