I know this is like a would you poll between Janet Reno and Donna Shalala, but I have to ask my fellow conservatives, which would require the least pounds of pressure on the nose to tolerate.

Easily Obama for me. I think it's going to come down to the delegates on the convention floor though, and that they're eventually going to combine for a Superticket. So in that sense, I believe you're going to get both regardless.

Under the current circumstances, I don't see a Neo-Con ticket that will be able to beat that ticket. Maybe y'all might see something here that I'm missing.

Right now nobody thrills me so I'm going with hottest First Lady. Of course that rules out the witch unless Bill sheds some pounds and puts on heels.

With that in mind right now I'm going with an Obama/Thompson race with the understanding either of their wives would be great to look at.

Rudy's lucky he's got an R next to his name.

There are no choices worthy to comment on, here or elsewhere.

To date none of the candidates have been impressive.

Do you think that's luck or choice?

Well, if likely Iowa caucus-goers have any say...


http://campaignsandelections.com/IA/articles/?ID=479

Perhaps most surprising of all, Obama actually finished third as the preferred general election candidate of registered Republicans, at 6.7 percent, behind Romney (21.8 percent), and Giuliani (10 percent), but ahead of Thompson (5.2 percent) and McCain (1.8 percent).

Obama's Iowa Communications Director Josh Earnest was pleased, and said the numbers reflect that Obama, "is the one [candidate] articulating a clear vision of standing up to special interests and uniting the country across party lines, across ideological lines," and that many of Obama's major accomplishments, "were done by uniting Republicans and Democrats around shared values."

"Of the Democratic candidates, Obama shows the most crossover support in this poll," said Redlawsk, although he emphasized that Obama's number doesn't hold any meaning for the caucuses. "What we're seeing at this early stage, among people looking forward to the November 2008 election, is that Obama is the Democrat Republicans are most likely to vote for."

I am a conservative. With an emphasis on the (.)

Fair enough? Otherwise, I will have to start calling you a psuedolib, or some other b.s. like that.

Oh yeah, I forgot, it was all of us "NEOCONS" that stayed home on the last election that cost all the "NEOCONS" their jobs. Yep, dat be us.

Obama easily. If I have to deal with a socialist in the White House, at least let it be one who has pledged to get us out of Iraq.

I'm surprised at the totals. Obama is far more liberal than Hillary Clinton. He sounds good in a speech, but actions (and voting records) speak louder than words. If I have to make this pick, Hillary is the lesser of two evils.

As far as I'm concerned, Hillary is a neocon. She's part of the whole centrist Bullshit establishment that's pushing us toward some one world order ****up government.

I won't argue with that.

I don't necessarily think Hillary is less liberal, but I do think she'd be less successful at implementing liberal policies, partially because she'd hit the ground running as a far more divisive figure and partially because she'd be practical enough to recognize that she (of all people) needs to pander to the middle. Obama, on the other hand, is smooth enough to avoid getting the hackles of most average conservatives up and I fear that if he were to get past the obstacle of getting elected, he'd have an effective mandate for change (and that change would surely be in the liberal direction). For these reasons, I agree with your conclusion, but I still couldn't vote for Hillary (even in an internet poll).

Yeah, he's "smooth." It couldn't be that he's willing (http://www.allamericanpatriots.com/48727668_barack_obama_barack_obama_senate_passes_obama_mccaskill_legislation_provide_safety_net_fami ) to work with (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Funding_Accountability_and_Transparency_Act_of_2006) Republicans (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070825/ap_on_el_pr/obama_ap_interview), or anything.

Yeah, I guess he's following (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_Child_Left_Behind) in the footsteps (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medicare_Prescription_Drug,_Improvement,_and_Modernization_Act) of the current President.
