The most intractable problem is that most liberals and leftists in the
USA will never vote for anyone who is actually against the Iraq and
Iran Wars, whether Chuck Hagel (R) or Dennis Kucinich (D) or Ralph

party's ticket.  :-0

John McCain has only hurt himself by his increasing emphasis on a
rabid pro-war stance.

Polls at this point suggest that it is likely to be Rudy vs. HRC.
