Balz is wrong. Warner didn't bow out because of Hillary or Obama. Nothing to do with them. He might have beaten both of them.

Also, Hillary and Obama may not run. Obama especially has strong reasons not to run.

Bayh didn't interest anyone. Gore indeed could probably win.

Balz doesn't mention Kerry who is almost definitely running and has a large war chest which makes it unnecessary for him to start fundraising early. Balz also doesnt mention Edwards, nor the fact that traditionall, black and female candidates have always been blasted out of contention, though some like Jesse Jackson have put a scare into others. Keep your eyes on Kerry and Edwards as well as Gore. It remains highly likely Dems will still nominate a white male.

Obama has just finished being hyped to the moon. Now starting to be under scrutiny one can see large holes in his resume. He is also black with an African muslim father and a name that sounds like our Top Ten Most Wanted list. I think the GOP knows how to smear Obama and Hillary. But if you think they can smear Kerry again you're being naive. For one thing McCain has already called the smearvets dishonest and dishonorable. Plus the Washington Times cleared Kerry of all smearvet charges after the election.
