No Room to Talk, Things to Expect

If there was one person that should have kept their mouth shut following the Scooter Libby almost-pardon, it was Hillary Clinton. So much so that I expected her not to say anything about it. Maybe Clinton felt she had to do another Bush bash because Rudy Giuliani is leading her, and Fred Thompson has come from a 10+ down to now being tied with her. You can make any excuse you want but in the end, the only reason a democrat would make this almost-pardon worse than all of Clinton's 140 pardons his last week of office is to find another reason as to why Bush is the worst president ever. Libby is embarrassed for life over this, and Clinton didn't even catch heat for his crime so when calling Bush a horrible person and exclaiming his failure, at least don't leave yourself in a whirlwind of hypocrisy.

Some have asked for my opinion on what they should expect in the 2008 election. It's a little to early to know where everything is going, but personally here is what I think may happen. The GOP should make a number of gains in the house races. That is one thing that I feel confident about in 08. As far as the senate, both the GOP and Democrats have a strong chance to pick up places in 08. The best chance for Republicans is in Louisiana where Mary Landrieu is in a bad situtation because there may not be enough demcrats that left during Katrina to give her or any democrat to win in the near future. As for Democrats, Colorado is the best chance in the OPEN SEAT race. As for president, I feel it's up in the air. Either Thompson or Giuliani is likely to get the nod in my opinion, with Romney and McCain with a slim chance. Hillary and Obama seem to be the front runners, but I would not be suprised to see Edwards make a late run to steal the nomination. Of Course, this is all up in the air and will likely change soon. Either way, it should be fun.
