As you say DFF, no chance, no clue. With all the rigamaroll going on right now with Iraq, Iran, healthcare, gas prices etc....You'd think he'd be a little more in-tune with the mainstream.

Personally I think the right has put much of their chances in McCain, and while I don't mind him, I think there's been a big backlash in him supporting the "surge". Other than that I can't think of anyone in the Republican party who is right for the job. Unless they roll out Rudy G, I see a Dem president.

Nothing wrong with strengthening families except that's not really what he is talking about, is it. It's code for running on moral issues like abortion, gay marraige (as you mentioned) which IMO aren't even issues that should be discussed in a Presidential election.

I wouldn't rule out an entry from Condoleeza Rice.
