A lot of announcements have come out already on the Dem side, but I'm starting a thread to dicuss all nominees.

Hillary - too polarizing, I think. If the dems want to be sure of a huge republican turnout, then they should nominate her. I think she has problems with the far left as well.

Obama - Don't know much about him, except that he was educated in a Madras for four years. Will America vote for someone who was? This will surely become an issue in the dem primaries.

Edwards - This man makes my stomach turn. He is so smarmy, so fake, I literally can't stand to hear one word from his mouth.

Richardson - Don't know too much about him, but he wasn't a bad governor of New Mexico.

Rudy - Not quite conservative enough for me, but he gets it (when I say gets it, I mean he and I agree on a lot of it) on foreign policy and terrorism.

McCain - Would be hard for me to vote for him, but if he were the nominee, he would definitely be the lesser of two evils. Like Rudy, I think he gets it.

Most important issues to me are tax policy, border policy, and how they will handle the war on terror.

Your thoughts?
