I think Guiliani and Romney have to have some cross over appeal simply because of offices they've previously held. A republican mayor or New York (though I'm not sure of NY mayoral elections are based on party affiliation) and a republican governor of Massachusetts have to have appealed to some liberals.

Richardson has cross over appeal, at least to me. He's about the only one of the dems that this republican would ever consider voting for.

OMG! There's a candidate we agree on?!?! I think the universe is going to implode now! :eek:

(Seriously though... This is why I like him. He's a moderate who appeals to both sides. And, he's competent and experienced. All of which of course means he hasn’t a snowball’s chance.)

it would, of course, depend on who he was running against. I'm certain I'd pick him over Huckabee or Ron Paul, but definitely not over Guiliani, Thompson, or Romney.

I don't like any of the Republican candidates this time around. I don’t think I could bring myself to vote for any of them.

Doesn't happen for me very often with Dems. I would have been able to vote for Lieberman, depending on whom he was running against, but that's about the extent of the dem candidates I can recall that I would have voted for.

Duly noted. I will have to look for that. Coke with real sugar is awesome.

The best news of all is that Bush II can never, ever be president again. Never ever.
