I don't think we need a slimey lawyer in the whitehouse.

As opposed to a slimey non lawyer?

At least a lawyer is more likley to know what is in the constitution before ignoring it.

Last and final call, primaries in Iowa are tommorow.

The more primary voters know about R. Giuliani, the more they dislike him. I wonder if it's the same way with H. Clinton -- she hasn't really faced attack ads from her competitors outside the early states.

Within the US, left-wing press has tried to push up McCain a lot lately, probably because he is the weakest candidate in general election with a chance to win primaries. If McCain wins in NH, the race is wide open on the Republican side.

1. Clinton
2. Romney
3. Romney
4. 3.0 %
5. -
6. 0.3 %

seems like we got our answer for question #5.

Democratic party debates should've given Mike Gravel (who's publicly trying to join the Libertarian party) enough exposure to guarantee the standard ~0.1% of protest votes given by people who in every election are pissed off enough to send a message that they hate both of their options in first past the post -voting system.

Okay. I'll admit it. Biden and Romney got nosed out.

Well Apolytonites, it is election day. Let’s see how many people guessed EITHER candidate correctly!

Snoopy369, Obama and Thompson on page 1
Krill, Obama and Huckerbee on page 2
EPW, Obama and Huckerbee on page 2
Ramo, Obama and Romeny on page 3
Impaler, Obama and Guiliani on page 3

Now let’s see who actually got BOTH candidates right!

Bosh, Obama and McCain on page 4. Predicted an Obama victory by 3% of the popular vote.

Igloodude, Obama and McCain on page 3. Predicted a McCain victory by 2.9% of the popular vote.

Nice to see how accurate everyone was in their guesses, i.e. only 2 people in all of the guesses got both candidates right . It looks like Bosh is going to be the overall winner.

My own guess was wildly wrong, I was guessing Clinton and Guiliani.

Wow, fun to read the predictions.

I honestly can't believe so many people thought Giuliani had a prayer at the GOP nomination. There was simply no way, no how the Republicans would ever nominate a pro-choice, pro-gay rights candidate.

That sounds like the people who said there is no way the United States will ever elect a black guy president.

Except he listed policy positions, and was talking about THIS election, not some distant future election.

A fun read. Looks like few gave Obama a thought at all.
