Democrats already viaing for 2008.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) -- Democratic Gov. Tom Vilsack of Iowa took the initial step in his long-shot bid for the White House Thursday, establishing a presidential campaign committee and seeking an early jump on 2008.

Well, as we can see the Race for 2008 has begun, not that Hillary has been campaigning for it or anything. But random Democratic Gov. Tom Vilsack has made steps to run in '08. I think this is a very insignificant "long-shot" as CNN put it. I think the Democrats are already torn between Senator Clinton and Senator Obama. It will be interesting to see who gets the nomination the first female or the first African American.

In the Republican camp I think and many seem to agree that only person who has the chance of winning is Senator John McCain, my moneys on him taking the Presidency in '08. However if serious changes are not made to the current status in Iraq, the Repbulican party is doomed. But if strategic changes and momentous advances are made in the coming months, the stage could be set for a moderate Republican victory.

Luckily, I don't think Hilary has much of a chance for 2008. I do agree with you, though, that the Republicans really need to shape up. The losses they incurred on Tuesday were a result of years of problems piling up and resurfacing. You are also right about McCain. I hope he can pull it off. It would be a shame to lose all Republican majority in the government.
