Considering that Kucinich, Biden, Tancredo and Dodd have withdrawn from the race I'd say this test is kind of weak...

It's always a relief to me when Kucinich withdraws from the race. I think he's a weenie.

This Mike Gravel fellow seems intriguing, pity he'll probably withdraw after NH.

John Edwards is my preference among those who stand a chance. Both Hillary and Obama are delivering audience tailored messages that tell me there's no "there" there. I think Edwards is the only one in it to govern rather than rule.

well I'd have to say I disagree with you heavily when it comes to Kucinich. I like his positions. I like what he says and I like him. I voted for him before and I will again. But thats me.

The problem with Gravel, at least from my stand point, is that during the debates he came off as the anti-war rabble rouser. A bit of a spoiler and too focused on that one issue. Or that is the way it seemed to me. Also don't discount the vacuous nature of the voters and the fact that he is the oldest candidate running for the Democratic Party ticket.

I'm also an Edwards fan. After Kucinich he seemed to have the best positions on labor and health care and besides he's put out more position papers then any other candidate I respect that... ^.^ Seemed like a good match to me.

Sing it, my brother. I see Obama, in particular, and one of two images pops into my head: either he's dancing around in front of his bedroom mirror in underwear with the Presidential seal on it, doing a Mick Jagger and crooning "WHO'S your daddy! WHO'S your president!", or else he's looking at a picture of the White House with big wide eyes, showing all his teeth, and crooning "ooooooooh! SHINY!"

Brrrr. Me no likey. Hillary, at least, has Bill with some gravitas in his pocket. But, like you, I like Edwards the best of the bunch.

And I don't know if Kucinich is a weenie, but I do think he wants to president of Cloudcuckooland. Realpolitik doesn't work that way, in my experience (and yes, I have some).

I'd be sort of interested in hearing your thoughts on what makes Edwards any more genuine than Obama... jus' curious :>

Too bad that I've barely heard about Gravel. That doesn't speak well for his chances.

My #1 was Edwards, but I probably need to sort out my priorities: Having Huckabee at 53% is alarming.
