New updated Presidential Pole........

Feingold is a very good voice for the far left, and yes, if Iraq goes sour, he will be one of the consistent 3-4 Democrats that can for the most part argue that they were against it all along. But the guy is supported by, and representative of the radical left, and would have a snowball's chance in hell in a national election. Hillbilly knows this - that's why she's been 'establishing her centrist credentials' as a Senator - supporting weapon systems and ostensibly the war in Iraq. Feingold will struggle mightily to bring in the middle, and very likely would draw an election result like Mondale or Dukakis.

Where's Barack Obama on that list?

If the Iraq War is still a problem come 2008, he will have an advantage against many of his peers, Unlike Kerry, Edwards, and Clinton, he won't have to try to explain why he gave Bush the authorization to take us into this stupid war.

Good for him. I'm sure he's quietly rooting for it to still be a problem.

And therin, lies the problem. What does Feingold run on?
What will his campaign look like?

"Feingold: 'I told you so'"
"Feingold: 'We're raising taxes and redistributing it as we see fit'"
"Feingold: 'We're against small businesses'"
"Feingold: 'We're taxing the hell out of anyone earning over 150,000 dollars a year and spending it on health insurance'"

It was a moment of clarity when HillBilly announced last year that everyone would have to pay higher taxes 'for the common good' - with the common good to be determined by the likes of HillBilly, Chuck Shumer, John Kerry, John Edwards and Teddy Kennedy, all who have the luxury of never having produced anything of value and/or never really working a day in their lives. John Edwards, whom that Rank guy likes, said during the election:

"If John Kerry is elected president, Christopher Reeves will stand up and walk, walk out of that chair"

Edwards earned his fortune convincing juries that children born with congenital brain defects were made that way by their OBGYN doctors. Like a snake oil salesman, he 'channeled the thoughts' of the babies as they made their way down the birth canal, telling the jury that they were 'being disfigured by their doctors'. Yet he would have a 'similar procedure', that is, 'injuring' fully formed humans legalized to protect women's rights to choose. And Kerry called him "The embodiment of the American Dream" in his nomination acceptance speech. Mainstream America knows how antithetical these charlitans are to their core values, and they don't have a prayer (ha ha, see the irony) to win a general election, even with the deceitful help of the Main stream media (Maybe Rather can find some more falsified documents that he still believes tell a true story).

And Barak Obama - nice guy, but what the hell has he done? What does he really stand for?

There used to be some great or at least decent Democrats, but guys Like Joe Lieberman are a dying breed, and the Democratic party is being hijacked by the extreme loony left of Moveon.org and Michael Moore. It's a damn shame, because there needs to be a rational strong opposition to the corporate influenced Republican party.

The thing is though, he's damn moderate. Very similiar to McCain. It would not surprise me in the least if McCain is his running mate should he make a go for it.

Eh, Barack Obama would win just on charisma. He's like Clinton, very very charmismatic and charming.
