Obama (yes it's pronounced O-ba-ma) is likely to weigh his options. He doesn't want the presidency right now, but he would be ill-advised to get too deep in to the Senate. Few Presidents have come out of the Legislature. The Dems are also looking at Pennsylvania's governor (I think he's a democrat). Guliani couldn't pull the south and the republicans know that.<BR/>I could go on for days, but I'd think if Obama was considering it at all he'd exit the Senate sooner rather than later, but you'd have to keep any eye out for serious improvement in IL before he made that move.Lawrenorderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08077500181343448151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12678419.post-1150923060581111842006-06-21T16:51:00.000-04:002006-06-21T16:51:00.000-04:00I think it would be a tight race between he and Hi...I think it would be a tight race between he and Hillary in the primary, but I think Barack could beat her out b/c of his charisma and ability to impress people. Hillary's track record and reputation is probably better, but unfortunately, if Barack continues to have the democratic marketing machine behind him and the media as well, they can create an environment in which he could win. <BR/><BR/>How can we even consider Jeb Bush as a legitimate presidential candidate? Where are all these republicans coming from with that bullshyt!?!? I still find it hard to believe that there are enough people out there to put Jeb Bush in office. But I felt the same way about our current President. Now Juiliani is a different story. After 9/11 his stock went up astronomically.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12678419.post-1150917177990510902006-06-21T15:12:00.000-04:002006-06-21T15:12:00.000-04:00Man, Barack Obama is a very intelligent and charis...Man, Barack Obama is a very intelligent and charismatic senator with a bright future but today looking toward the 2008 election it's just NOT gonna happen for him. He couldn't beat Hilary in the Democratic Primaries so how do you expect him to beat Rudy Juliany or Jeb Bush...2 names with a large amount of notariaty. Shoot, Hillary probably can't beat them but I still have hope for another Clinton presidency so forgive my idealism.<BR/>DaneAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12678419.post-1150902723217223832006-06-21T11:12:00.000-04:002006-06-21T11:12:00.000-04:00"You can doubt it, or you can be a part of it."

I LOVE BARACK OBAMA!!!!!...AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!! I LOVE BARACK OBAMA!!!!!! HE IS TOTALLY GOING TO FIX AMERICA!!!!!<BR/><BR/>ahem. that being said, you are right, he is only first term, but damn. It's also only Dwyane's 3rd year out, nah mean? "It don't take a whole day to recognize sunshine", son. <BR/><BR/>Obama's hot because he's not only charismatic, but he's got brains and a good heart behind it. A deadly combination when you are fighting racism, injustice, and poverty. He knows how to appeal to both sides without sacrificing his commitment to those that need the most help. Now THAT's what's up. You can doubt it, or you can be a part of it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
