I don't think a Republican candidate is likely to win, unless it's McCain against anybody who isn't Clinton, Obama or Edwards. Most of the Repub candidates seem to have some fatal flaw, some bizarre little thorn that will gather detritus until they splinter and come apart. They seem more extremist than the Republicans of older times. Then again, I think the whole party's become more extreme while the Democrats are becoming less so.

Kucinich has good ideas, but so do a lot of people who wouldn't necessarily make a good president.
