Choose Our President 2008
Fmr. Vice President Al Gore (TN) kept the monthly and cumulative lead for president in the Choose Our President 2008 poll emphasizing Southern and Western candidates for president (currently, no Southerners are broken out in the presidential poll). Fmr. Sen. John Edwards (NC) leads sales at the Choose Our President 2008 Shop this month. Sen. Russ Feingold (WI) won the vice presidential poll.
A few housekeeping items: Sen. Joe Lieberman (CT) has been dropped completely off the site, anticipating his dropping completely off the political scene (he was only ever there as someone to avoid, anyway), and Sen. Debbie Stabenow (MI), who voted for Michael Hayden to head the CIA, also will not be found on Choose Our President 2008 again.

As always, this poll is subject to wild fluctuations due to dedicated voters, and that's how we like it. The poll has now been reset with the candidates in their new cumulative vote order, unchanged from last month. Also, please note our new vice presidential poll, which allows you to choose a complete 2008 ticket, and maybe people who complain about their candidate not being broken out in the presidential poll will feel better if they can promote their candidate with our new composite ticket graphic, which will change each month to display the presidential and vice presidential poll winners as a ticket.
