it does appear a bit unseemly for an anarchist to be a politics addict, but i come by it natural, having grown up among the chatterers of dc. so forthwith some thoughts on 2008.
the democrats will no doubt be looking for a drip, someone as pathetic as al gore or john kerry. but even they are not quite stupid enough to nominate one of those guys again. so i'd suggest tommy thompson, after his party switch. my wife interviewed him one time, and came away saying this: " i kept thinking it was my fault that he didn't say anything. no. this was a man who hadn't said anything in 40 years." i predict a mighty elfadeo for hillary; the dems might as well just hang themselves on national tv. it's a terrible shame that the bright and principled russ feingold ain't running. if i had to call right now, i'd say look out for john edwards and barak obama: young and outsider is going to work this time around. or else we're gonna get all populist with lou dobbs or some governor who's been reading his books; it might be a very funny year.
