| #5 HRC's problem's NOT lack of name exposure. It's that too many people know who and what she is and dislike her intensely. |

| #4 She's well known and exposed [in NH], so this gives [Hillary] a good lead off. That explains Obama's spending so much time in New Hamphsire already. |

| #3 Lanny D, I think there's credence in this. She'll likely select someone like Bayh or Vilsack to pick up centrist voters from mid-America. She's got to court Vilsack a while longer tho, because, due to nature of Iowa's caucus voting, he'll automatically win Iowa. She doesn't have the time to spend in Iowa on the lead up. She doesn't win there, but no one else does either. Vilsack is the place holder. She probably wins New Hampshire. She's well known and exposed there, so this gives her a good lead off. Nevada is in between now, and due to moneyed interests she'll do no worse than second there. If she shows well in the first 5-6 primaries, she's got it. Note that she's now conferring with all the old team from Bill's runs. They are starting to get serious now. If she's the candidate, she's going to be difficult to beat in the election. Republicans have yet to identify a viable candidate. |

| #1 Don't be surprised if he is the d's VP candidate in '08. He has a middle America demeanor, not seen as a big liberal and he comes from what appears to be a developing swing state. For me, he's a scary candidate because he'd really pull in the swing voters. After Hillary gets her cross hairs on and drops barack hussein obama, I think she'll go for Evan to moderate the ticket and pick up a traditionally Republican state. |
