Election 2008 Update

According to the Washington Post Political Blogger Chris Cillizza:
Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-Tenn.) will not run for president in 2008, according to sources close to the politician. Read more...
Further election updates, in a recent likability poll released by Quinnipiac University former Mayor of New York City Rudy Giuliani is the most liked "possible candidate." I will continue to endorse the McCain-Giuliani ticket, however in recent months Condoleezza Rice has seperated herself so much from the Bush administration. I have not seen her and the President make an appearance together in some time. As well she has stepped up her diplomatic initiative in the political hot bed of the Middle East, could she be doing this for a potential nomination, I am not sure. I think it would be political suicide for the Republican party to nominate her or anyone closely associated with President Bush and his administration.

Below are the poll results for more information click here
1. Rudy Giuliani:       64.2 (9)
2. Barack Obama: 58.8 (41)
3. John McCain: 57.7 (12)
4. Condoleezza Rice: 56.1 (7)
5. Bill Clinton: 55.8 (1)
6. Joe Lieberman: 52.7 (16)
7. Michael Bloomberg: 51.4 (44)
8. John Edwards: 49.9 (20)
9. Hillary Clinton: 49 (1)
10. Bill Richardson: 47.7 (65)
The road to 2008 is still in its earliest days however by January or February of 2007 I expect we will see clear cut answer as to who will and will not be running.

Who do you want to run for President?
