No need to sit around waiting for the race to develop, the results to come in, and the conventions to kick into gear. I'll just come right out and tell you who the nominees will be for each party in 2008. That's right, stop watching the debates, turn off the talk radio, and tune in to your favorite mind-numbing garbage! Say goodbye to FOXNews and CNN, and flip on some BET. Because the results are in. I'm technically not supposed to do this, good-of-the-nation-informed-citizen-mumbo-jumbo-blah-blah. But here goes...
Democrats: Come on, you already knew this, didn't you? It's Hillary Clinton, hands down. She's been ahead since the begin of the horse-race, and no one has made any sort of legitimate charge. Her numbers have held up, and she shows no signs of faltering. Obama, Edwards, Richardson, and the rest: start your campaign for VP now. Bill, roll your pimp-mobile out of Harlem and get on the bandwagon because Hil's the early favorite (two-thirds expect her to be the next Prez: Clinton Expected to Win ).
Republicans: This one's a bit trickier. Giuliani may well have the best shot in a general election matchup against the Dem's. However, his liberal social views alienate him from the base too much to win the nod, no matter how he tries to frame them. Romney has a shot, leading early in both Iowa and New Hampshire. However, there are not enough flip flops in upper Atlantic region (not even including Kerry's impressive collection) to distract from his vacillations. It's Fred Thompson, the tough-talking, Reagan-esque Southerner who will take on Hillary. (Here's an interesting, though negatively-biased, portrait: Encounters With "Regular Guy" )
