4. I think you're right. And I think it's going to be Hillary who will go negative, early and often

Plus, the woman has a mean streak. Look how contemptuous she was of women who traded the executive suite for the nursery. She's capable of being very nasty.

5. It's not just Hillary, whoever gets a bit ahead is gonna be hit. I expect Barry Ombama
to start looking like the fox chased by the hounds pretty soon.

9. The easiest, stupidiest false claims will be put away early...
Edited on Sat Jan-20-07 01:28 PM by HereSince1628
And we know there will be stupid claims. But I expect there will also be some that resonate and don't go away too easily.

I don't know what they are yet, but I've almost never seen a campaign where some of these jabs didn't draw some blood.

8. Sure, the candidates will move over in the pool to welcome...
Richardson in. Welcome Richardson :)

Pop open a can of soda, grab some snacks, and join the debate!

The more, the better. We'll have a great debate for whose our guy/gal in 08'

Plus he's a Governor, we could use one more in the debate.

11. I really like what I've seen of Richardson recently.
He's probably not my favorite candidate, but I'd be more than happy to vote for him for President.:D
