Where I'm Leaning

For quite a while I had decided that I might stray away from my normal right of center vote and go pretty much to the middle, meaning I was leaning toward Rudy Giuliani. But I have really been suprised by how much I've liked Mike Huckabee lately, both his beliefs both personal and presidential level. I did not pay much attention to Huckabee, even after his strong showing in the Iowa straw poll, but as the debates have went along and he has got more in the open, I really have started to enjoy the prospects of him being a candidate.

Meanwhile, I have started trailing away from the prospects of Fred Thompson and Mitt Romney. I was never high on Romney, but Thompson has been a drag for me lately. Giuliani hasn't really changed for me. I kind of knew what I was expecting from Giuliani from the beginning so he is still my second choice for the time being.

On the Democratic side, it has closed up in Iowa. Obama may have gained, but I still think Clinton is the easy favorite. Obama IS making progress though and still has the potential for an upset. John Edwards is the only democrat I actually like, even though I don't really agree with him a lot. Either way, his campaign has been slipping and it doesn't seem as if he will survive very long.

This may come as a shock, but expect things to change before it's all over.
