It would be a pretty close choice between Clinton and Obama for me. Probably a slight edge to Hillary.

the only one who i can say so far that i completely hate is Rudy Guliani. all he can ever say is "9/11, 9/11, 9/11!", basing his entire campaign on fear and sucking up to Bush whenever he can. he is complete scum for using such an henious act for his own selfish purposes, and if the september 11th had never happened most americans wouldn't even know who this guy was

The man completely turned NYC around long before 9/11 took place. And on that day and the following days he was a magnificent leader. I'm not sure I see how he is using 9/11 for selfish purposes. He was the mayor of NYC on the worst day in it's history and his actions as such are something he should definitely be reminding people of.

Did anyone watch the democratic debate from cnn/youtube last week? Very, very encouraging ideas coming out of that party IMO. They'll be in the whitehouse come next Jan.
I think Obama would do an outstanding job on international relations despite his short (er) record. The youthfulness he brings out is great. His ideas are what the US needs right now more than ever. His ideas to tackle healthcare are bold to say the least, but I actually trust this politian...which is something I haven't been able to say about anyone in politics in a long time, US or Canada.
I am Barack Obama and I approve this message.
Our strong connections to the US make this election almost as important to us as them...

I found the debate to be typical. Too many softball questions and avoidance of tough questions.
They all avoided what I thought was the best questionof the night. Theone about the retirement of the baby boomers and the effect it wil have on the rest of America. No one answered it. Would they raise taxes or cut services. Nope, nada...just going to find a bipartisan solution

Rudy made 11 million dollars in 2006 from book royalties and speaking fees. He charges $100 000 per appearance. I think this is really sellfish, espescially since many firefighters hold him responsible for most of the FDNY deaths on 911. I don't think he has much of chance in the GOP anyways, because of all his scandals (I just found out he married and divorced his cousin).
If I was american I'd vote for any democrat except Gore.

I believe in "Primary Colors".
The Democrats need someone who can "play the game". Bill knew exactly how to "play the game" of politics and Hillary knows the rules as well if not better.
I no longer believe that it is possible to win an election with honesty and integrity. Nice guys finish last in politics, especially American politics.

Well said. I think Hilary will be even bigger disaster than Bill.
Ron Paul is hands down the best candidate, eventhough I disagree with him on the foreign policy.
Anyone but a Democrat and we will be fine for the next 4 years.
