Would a Republican candidate have an easier time defeating Hillary or a different Democrat?
Mу personal feelings аrе thаt іf Hillary іѕ thе Democratic nominee, thаt Republican voters wіll come out іn such a large force tο prevent hеr frοm becoming President, whereas іf another Democrat іѕ thе nominee, thаt Republicans mау nοt come out аѕ much, expecting аn simple win over a "second-tier" candidate.
Yουr thουghtѕ?
Look at Venezuela. Wasn’t that supposed to be a certain victory for Hugo???
Be patient, Hillary’s ego and arrogance will ruin her.
Yes, i agree with you. I’d be a fool not to.
As a registered Republican, I agree with you 100%. Barack Obama on the other hand would give Republicans a run for their money.

THE REPUBLICANS JUST NEED A GOOD CANIDATE THAT STANDS OUT, WHERE AS THE DEMOCRATS ALREADY HAVE A COUPLE OF QUALIFIED CANIDATES!
The Republican poarty is so broke right now, that only the fringe of the fringe will vote for them, regardless.
I agree. She will energize the base as they say.
My personal feelings are that GOP is gonna suck on a huge juicy lolypop come November 2008.
I have seen the future and Hilary is our next president wether we like it or not.
I really don’t reckon she’ll make it far enough to get the Democratic nomination…and I’m a democrat. I just don’t have any reason to believe she’ll be able to run the country.
I’m going to say the toughest democrat for the republicans to beat would be Obama. He has a record of working on a bi-partisan basis to get bills passed both in the US senate as well as the Illinois senate. He is well liked and admired by his republican colleagues who seem keen to join him on a Bill. Conversly Hillary has very small support among self described republicans.
That’s a excellent question. I reckon we won’t get any of the democrats that lost in the past. They are losers. Running again makes them look even more like losers. So it will be between those who haven’t run before, which is why Obama and Hillary are the front runners. Neither are excellent candidates. If we had a Democratic Dark Horse…a better version of Gore, for example, I reckon a Democrat could win if it were a rich white male that was in with the electoral college. He won the well loved vote before, so we know it’s possible. But as it stands it looks like we’ll get another Republican president and the country will go bankrupt or nuclear or something else toxic and ruinous to the poor.
My thoughts are that the Democrats and the jump-ship republicans will easily defeat any GOP candidate because of the major fiasco that has commonly been called the Bush administration.
Many Republicans are sick of the George Bush error they made, some may not vote at all. But if Hillary runs, I will cross party lines to vote for anyone but her. The last thing this country needs is Hillary in charge.
That does seem to be the case–a recent Zogby poll shows Hillary losing head-to-head against any GOP candidate. Bear in mind that it’s the middle-of-the-road voters who really choose the election, because the faithful on both sides will always turn out to vote. Hillary is seen as a controversial and divisive candidate, which makes her less attractive to moderates. She also has a long history of unpopular or questionable statements, stands, and actions that will all be brought out and used against her if she gets the nomination.
The problem is…
Hillary Clinton has to pick a Vice President, and it is going to have to be Obama.
Obama is black and I don’t reckon White people are ready
for that.
So I reckon Republicans voted Hillary and Obama in polls, because they know any of the Republican candidate will beat them.
If Rudy Giuliani won nomination, his running mate would probaby be Huckabee, Romney, or McCain. Or
maybe Huckabee won nomination and his running mate would be Romney. Then you know they will beat Clinton/Obama , 99% chance.
But if Clinton chose Edwards, then Blacks will feel she is a racist for picking Edwards and not Obama.
We will come out in full force no matter what. So the Liberal democrats better bring it
