The recent trend of beatable presidents seeking a second term going up against a couple of Soggy Cornflakes (Dole, Kerry) really needs to stop. I think that 2008 is a pivotal election for the direction of this country and the parties need to step up and bring some strong candidates... we need a Jay Santos and Arnold Vinick

I really think Warner is going to make a strong showing. In fact, he could wind up running against another former Virginia governor, Allen.
He is moderate and level-headed. I think he would be tough to beat. I think Richardson from New Mexico could be intriguing, particularly with immigration being the hot topic it is.
I also wouldn't be surprised to see Lieberman throw his hat in the ring. He could even pull a version of a Santos move and ask McCain to run with him. That would be a strong ticket.
I think there are a lot of great names out there. I just hope they rise above the noise of other candidates, like Kerry/Dean.
