Hey, I love Obama as much as most other people here, but maybe it's too soon to be thinking abotu who sohould be out president in '08. If Obama ran, would I support him? Hell yes. Would he win a primary in a skittish party? Prolly not if it were held today.

Alas, we do not know what the facts on the ground in Iraq (or our other, newer wars) will be. We don't know what stage of the economic cycle we'll be in. Things could change so much in a few years that I may be willing to support Bayh or Warner or Lieberman. Who knows. What we really need to do if we care about truly progressive policies coming to the fore is working to organize nad communicate our message, not put energy into a presidential race in the distant future,
