I'm currently watching the Democratic debate and must say this; Apparently these potential candidates want to be all things to all people. For example, I heard that they want to build water purification plants in 3rd world foreign countries, give free (and NOTHINGS FREE) health care to everyone in this country, endorse gay marriage, dump even more $ into funding public schools, completely withdraw all US troops from Iraq, increase taxes and on and on.
Now, last I knew public schools were solely a state responsibility, (even though Republicans have supported this as well), universal health care was never supposed to a government (taxpayer) responsibility, increasing taxes would devastate a recovering economy, troop withdraw would lead to totaly anarchy in Iraq and I'm not sure where our mandate is to build infrastructure for foreign lands.
The most level headed amonst the group is without a doubt Senator Leiberman. I'm not a Democrat or Republican but have a conservative perspective on life and from what I see any one of these guys will get TROUNCED by President Bush.
Just my $.02.
