I am a liberal Dem opposed to Iraq War from before the
invasion - I am probably a "dove" but can't a person'
against the Iraq War be a Hawk about the right to go
to war when it is considered the right thing to do
(as when we went into Afghanistan? But violently
oppose the Iraq War?

Chris

You are wise observer but you need to ensure that you dont fall into the clever strategies of the clintons. Can you really say she is experienced ! Give me a break - spending time in the Oval office is hardly experience. If it was so, Laura Bush should succeed Dubya. Why dont you compare the legislative records of Clinton and Obama and the blowhard Biden instead ?

Most voters that I have spoken with feel that November 2008 can not get here soon enough.
Regardless of who the candidates are a change is needed in the White House.

Chris, I was watching your segment on Hillary Clinton's saying "I'm your girl" in the debate the other night. Is it a slow news day or something? I love your show but this was the most ridiculous use of oxygen I've listened to in a very long time. The talking heads were droning and predictable and the debate was just silly.

Who cares if Hillary calls herself "girl". I do hope and pray that voters are not that shallow. I'm 74 and I think quite intelligent and I look at experience, knowledge of issues, and how the candidate stands on issues. Issues do change as the world changes. Right now Senator Clinton is my candidate. By the way, I think she is brillant as she gets a lot of free press over comments like "girl".

no, it's not too early to cover the primaries. If only you guys could just figure out now how to cover them fairly and stop being Hillary's poodles.
As a woman democrat, I am sick to death of all these stories about the wonderful Hillary while trashing or ignoring the other candidates.
Despite the polling, there are alot of democrats who are tired of her getting free pass from the press and always declared the winner in debates even when boo'd.
Actually we would like know just exactly did Hillary do to be declared so experienced, why she has no policy, why she employs a union buster, what about her problems with outsourcing, and why she is declared so substantive when all she says is sound bites and spin and trying to dodge questions.

Maybe it's just me, but I think the reason there is so much interest in 2008 is because we can't wait to get rid of the idiot who is in office now.

So let me get this straight shall we? The country that was founded, based on the principles of anyone can run for president and serve their country, has turned into a greater circus event than anyone could of ever imagined. What does it take these days? A willing heart, a keen mind? no... cold cash..

Another election year about who can spend the most money and who can hide their two faced nature. Until we do something about all this campaign spending, put some term limits on the folks "serving" this country, and pretty much offer a political enema to DC, it will be the same ol' race year after year with America getting the shaft in the long run..

"Public Servants, like diapers, need to be changed frequently and for much the same reason..." is a quote I think of every time I start to listen to our current contenders for President and the Congress.

Looks like I get to waste my vote again this time around, as I'm sure it will be nothing but the usual suspects that actually make the ballot. To quote another movie... Vote none of the above! Maybe, just maybe, if we can see past the labels we've forced upon ourselves, and actually vote for the person who will do the best overall job, we can avoid reliving our mistakes, over and over and over again.

Is it only me who is concerned that candidates who are running for office campaign for almost as long as they will hold the office should they win? My concern is that they will be so wrapped up in what they'll do that they never have time to do it!
Exhibit the candidates for president who already hold office. How's the legislation for immigrant status and war reform coming along?
