Another strong ticket for the Dems to consider in '08 is Warner/Bayh. Definitely not my bandwagon. My own guess remains that any Dem will beat the likely Rep candidate since the far right owns the party. So I would prefer a good, strong Dem to one that is essentially a DLC candidate. Should, by some genuinely unanticipated lightning bolt, either McCain or Guiliani get the nomination, then the Dems are going to have a hard time. It's possible to beat Guiliani, but very difficult to beat McCain. Surely, somewhere in a Guiliani campaign, the mayor we loved to hate in NYC before 9-11 would resurface. The one whose anger was not below the surface but on it and bubbling all the time. In plain sight. Could one run a campaign against McCain in which the Dem went to the left and won? Hmmmm. I would need to think about that. Obama could do it but 08 is too soon for that. He's getting ready of 2012.
