Who Should Get the Dem Nom?

I think Obama and Hilary would both do a great job of "looking good" as president; unfortunately their policies would do the country more harm than good. I feel Richardson could do an "ok" job of "looking presidential" (he seems like a good guy but just doesn't have the strongest charisma of the lot) while his policies could do the country some good.

However, as a republican Newt is my guy and he would do the opposite: he would do a bad job of "looking good" (at least because the media would constantly portray him in a bad light regardless) while on the other hand his policies would do the country more good than harm. (For those liberals who haven't heard him lately, he has been a vocal critic of the Bush war policies long before it was "cool" to do so...)

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Edwards made it painfully clear in the latest CNN democratic debate that he wants someone's VP nomination. He was almost tripping over himself to flatter the other candidates every time they opened their mouths.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I saw his lips planted on Obama's rear end more than once, and Hilary's more than once as well. I'm not saying he never attacked their ideas, but I never once saw a single other Democratic nominee go on about how their opponent made a good point and had good ideas. Maybe I'm giving Edwards too much credit and he's simply more incompetent than I suspected?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
