Let's look at the Democratic leadership and their potential to win the presidency in '08

Edward Kennedy .... No Hillary Clinton .... No Harry Reid ... No Joe Biden .... No Nancy Pelosi ... No Al Gore .... No Howard Dean ... No John Kerry ... No Robert Byrd ... Hell no John Edwards ... Probably not Jay Rockefeller ... Probably not Bill Clinton ... Can he run again? Barack Obama .... 4 years as senator prepares him for the presidency? Don't think so.

Some names to keep in mind though:

Gov. Tom Vilsack (Iowa) Gov. Rod Blagojevich (Illinois) Sen. Evan Bayh (Indiana) Ex. Sen John Breaux (Louisiana)

In other words, Midwestern or Southern candidates are the only hope.

Meanwhile the Republicans have all sorts of attractive candidates. Too many to list.

It's going to be a long walk in the wilderness for Democrats.
