    I personally think Obama or Clinton will be the next President...and all of the polls that I've been seeing shaws that Obama is ahead of Clinton.

    And that is exactly why I say this is an interesting presidential election.

    Im a registered Republican who usually ends up voting for a Dem, but the reason was the Bush family. There is a few Republicans I actually like this time and that more than I can say for Hillary..sorry. I just dont like her. Im pretty conservative and thats odd for my generation. But I hate any big gov in my business and both sides have offered lots of that. Hillary and immigration are a scary mix. I come from a unique perspective and my Dh is an immigrant and new American as of this year. To each his own though. I think everyone has to remember ALL the issues and weigh one evil againts another.

    That issue is the real wild-card in this race...the non-traditional candidates on the Democratic side. Normally, I would probably agree that the Democrats would probably win just based on the overall cycle of things. But throw in some non-traditional candidates, I think the race is going to much closer. Hillary has a ton of baggage to overcome to win a general election, and Barrack (although I like him) has too little experience and is painting himself into a corner on certain issues to appeal to the base of the democratic party that will hurt him in a general election.

    Also, I think the war is a bigger liability to dems than most people think; yes, a majority of people are opposed to the war, but at the same time, Americans don't like to lose...in their heart of hearts, many Americans will have a hard time voting for a democrat that wants to bail out on the war on terror.

    On the flip side, aside from Guiliani, there is no real dynamic Republican Candidate

    I think we will probably see a repeat of 2000 (meaning a VERY close race, but with no court battles), but it is a toss-up as to who will come out on top.

    Why unnessarily complicate things for yourself, and just refer to him as Barrack Obama...

    a black african american, yellow chinese american, red amercian indian, woman?

    actually, that IS probably what this country needs!, while throwing out the whole R&D garbage.

    I am voting on the federal reserve for president, if there is anything left by then.

    I'm pretty sure a Democrat will be the next president...but still not certain whether it will be Clinton or Obama. I think this election will be a very, very close race.

    The way I see it we have had eight years of totally screwing up. It's time to give it back to the democrats. Get ready for Hillary Clinton. She will be the next president.

    Take it or leave it to beaver.

    Imagine you walk into restaurant and order foods. Only two choices of beef are offered on the menu possible. What do you choose, is it either...>

    1) Republican (Rare), or

    2) Democratic (Well-Done!), or

    3) Walk-out and No decisions yet... -> (Absence-minded)... yes, I know... .. I'll take-out chinese foods instead...

    As long as Ron Paul is running on a republican platform, there is NO WAY I would vote him.

    We currently HAVE a republican president. Aren't things messed up enough already?

    Could not agree more! The more I listen to him, the more I like him.
    Mr NO! We need someone with guts to finally say NO.
