I'm a liberal and would not.

I'd actually really love to see Bloomberg run as an independant.

Guilliani as president, Michael Bloomberg as vice president.
It's time to bring back the "Rockefeller Republicans".

Few issues we disagree on including the obvious issue of abortion rights. But I'd still vote for him because he can put up a good argument and I think he can see my side of things as well.

Also, he attended some socialist party meetings when he was younger which is pretty disgusting. But hey, I used have different outlook when I was younger as well but I grew up and my views solidified.

The question comes back to "Is he ready?", probably not. He still plays both sides of the fence when discussing issues such as global warming. And takes the "Me too!" attitude when people offer up solutions.


But here are my pics for 2008

Rudolf vs. Hillary, Rudolf by a landslide
Rudolf vs. Obama, Obama by 10%
Obama vs. McKain, too close to call

I'm a demeo and I'd vote for Rudolf.

Here are my pics for 2008

Rudolph vs. *, Rudolph by a landslide
Hillary vs. *, * by at least 10%...this includes Jeb Bush
Obama vs. McCain, too close to call and expected since we have a recent history of providing candidates not worth the effort to get off the couch and vote for because they both suck. I hope this isn't the case in 08 but fear it may be. Have we had a decent candidate run for pres since.....well hell since I was 18? Who was it that said "Anyone that has made it to the presidency should not be allowed to be president?" or something like that (I'm paraphrasing).

You're not a damn conservative, give it up already. And as far as I'm concerned, I'd vote for Obama regardless of his stance on the issues because he's probably the ONLY politician in Washington today who seems to really want to bring both sides together...and that's worth supporting no matter what the poltics. I know you are about as partisan a Republican as you can get, but does this country really need any more years of Republicans telling half the country to go fvck themselves all the time?

If half the country consists of morons then yes we need someone willing to tell them to go f__ themselves. But it would be better if we had someone who would be willing to educate those morons to reduce the number of morons to a more manageable level than half the population don't you think? That is why we have the education president in office now. I just wish he had one too.

I do really believe that Obama wants to get both parties to work together again. As a result, it would not surprise me at all if he won the Democratic nomination and decided to go with a moderate Republican as his VP.

you guys are so naive, it's Hillary who will be the next President, just ask your wives and girlfirends (who outnumber you and are sick of the Republicans and who look favorably on Hillary)
