The Democratic party is very, very fortunate to have the slate of

people so far committed to run for POTUS. I just heard Chris Dodd on Hardball with Barnicle and must say the more I hear him the more I like him. He's a straight shooter, doesn't hesitate to answer questions, and he gives the correct answers. I like his experience, his background. If I were to take a nap now and wake up election day, just tell me who was nominated, they're all great. There's not a one of them I wouldn't support. Sure....there are a couple of personality flaws in some that hopefully will be refined as time moves on, but when you start to do some comparisons with the Republics, our team is outstanding. I feel good about '08, good for us....

3. I agree. We've got an excellent chance to take the White House.

You compare Clinton, Obama, Edwards, Richardson, Biden, Kucinich, and Dodd to Rudy McRomney, Tancre-dobbs, Huckabilly, and Brownshirt and we've got all winners. We're so busy putting litmus tests to our candidates, that we ought to take a step back and compare to the alternatives from the Repugs. I can go down our list and pick apart our candidates but I still wouldn't have a 100th of the list of negatives there are on the Republican side. We can only lose if we cripple our own horse.
