My ill informed opinions:
GOP: This maybe because I'm in Georgia and my frame of reference is messed up, but McCain, Rudy, and Romney won't bring out the bible thumper base. (I like all of them all right, but there's a group of GOP voters that you will lose with any of them; although maybe less so with McCain) Jeb won't appeal to anyone. Huckabee and Brownback, I've got no opinion.
Does anyone really like Hillary? Obama, we all like, but we fear he lacks substance and experience. We want to be the kind of people who would vote for him, but I don't know if we feel confident he can broker the power. Maybe the combination would have it all. Hillary seems ruthless; Obama brings the character. Would either be the VP for the other?
Edwards doesn't do much for me: a plaintiffs' lawyer who went into politics: that's a good thing? Bayh, I have no opinion.
