Eye on '08.
The New Republic puts together a list of second-tier presidential nominee possibilities for the Democrats in 08. I haven't heard of a lot of them, and some of the reasoning for their choices seem pretty far out, but it's an interesting read. I wish someone (I nominate Mark Harris or Alex Brunk) would do such a list for Republicans. All of our First Tier candidates seem like definite losers to me (even the ones I love tremendously, like Giuliani).
It goes well with another TNR piece about why Hillary would be a poor choice in '08. Michelle Cottle draws the parallel to Kerry's unlikeability 'Not to be confused with his IQ or experience or fundraising clout or height', and reminds Hillary enthusiasts that she too is pretty damn unlikeable.

Yeah, but before we get to '08, we have to get through '06.
Posted by: Shawn at November 21, 2004 04:37 PMI've made a list of both Dems and GOPers on my blog.
My number one pick at the moment is Governor Ernie Fletcher of Kentucky, a former US Congressman.

List of second tier candidates is the first post.
Posted by: Alex at November 22, 2004 02:54 AMI couldn't care less who the Republicans will nominate in '08 (or the Dems for that matter). I assume this will change by the midterm elections, but it is true now. So why comment?
Bug Me Not is fookin' awesome. Thanks.
