Are there any common sense Republicans that could win the nomination for President in 2008?
John McCain, Colin Powell etc?

We'll get exactly whoever the billionaires who pay for the tv ads decide will run, and neither guy will really be that different from the other.
His military pension alone must be over $115K/year with a COLA & lifetime medical... I don't think he's coming back!VoyT said:As for Powell ... it may be too late, timing wise. I don't get any indications that he's interested, anyway.

I recall media coverage of Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea attending church in Washington D.C. So there are at least 3 dems that are Christians.DOG51 said:I vote for this option. BTW Cut, am I to assume from your comments here and in the past about the Christian right that you think there are no Christians in the Democratic Party? Just curious.

I couldn't figure out whether this was a joke in poor taste or an actual opinion of a small mind?youbet said:Oh gawd! Sheeesh C-T, don't say stuff like that without warning! Hee hee....... I'm laughing myself right out of the chair........ Excellent, excellent. I gotta give ya credit for that one!
Cut-Throat said:Heck - I'm a Christian and a Democrat - But, there is a difference between the Christian Right Wing that currently controls the GOP and a Christian. The most Christian person I can think of in politics is Jimmy Carter, a Democrat. He walks the walk.
An example of the Christian Right is Pat Robertson that tried for the GOP nomination - And he's Fricken Nuts!
DOG51 said:I hope the Republicans do nominate someone like McCain or Powell and I also hope the Democrats nominate a sensible person. It would be nice to think that we would be in good hands whether a Republican or Democrat is elected. But that is probably just wishful thinking.
