Not too early is it? 2008 Presidential fun

Americans vote for the tone they like. Back in 1995 I predicted that Bush, Jr. would be the Republican nominee in 2000 because he was kind of a hot governor and people sort of missed Bush I. The Republican nominee in 2000 will be Mike Huckabee, a thoughtful sounding evangelical. Barring some new attack at home, people will be sick of big stick wielders and foreign policy in general and the nagging suspicion that Bush II and his ilk wanted to commit America to a decades long war to capture the middle east and its oil.

If Huckabee runs, I think he beats Hillary because she's hard to listen to, but I think she beats the adulterer Giuliani, the cruel Brownback, the Mormon Romney and the ancient cancer victim McCain, none of whom are terribly compelling speakers.

If it looks like Huckabee is going to run, Obama probably would be the better candidate. The interesting thing from the Democrat side is whether Gore is waiting in the wings to see if Hillary self destructs. He'd have some explaining to do about 2000, but you can't say he's not experienced.
