Trifecta

[BB]

Rudy being pulled up, McCain pulling away, and Santana on his way to Shea. Nice score for a tuesday, JB!

A major score for Minaya. Not a bad offseason when you can swap out Glavine for
Santana.

RuGiu\'s campaign manager did not recognize the bias,held Rudy back early, got
too far behind the frontrunners.

RuGiu\'s future: VP candidate? Cabinet position? Head of Homeland Security,
where the great terrorist fighter myth can be perpetuated?  Ambassadorship to a
country where he can hone his awful golf game? RuGiu likely to turn up anywhere
in a McCain Administration, so long as it is a position where he would not be
required to disclose client list at Giuliani Partners.

McCain v either of the current Dem frontrunners a great race where I would
expect that the \"handle\" (# of votes cast) would break all records.

One man\'s opinion: The Dem ticket is Obama/Clinton or Clinton/Obama. There is
something about the way they act around each other that leads me to believe that
this deal has already been cut. Just an opinion.

Rudy as VP is an interesting possibility in that perhaps he helps in states that would otherwise likely be going to the Dems. Also, no Senate confirmation required, which - IMO - keeps him from getting a cabinet post that would almost certainly require disclosing the client list. No way Rudy gives up that client list.

Disagree on O/C or C/O. I don\'t think either of them could stand that job. Also, I think they hate each other at this point. Also, IL and NY are going Dem regardless, so, other than the \"dream ticket\" aspect ... why do it?

My bet? Exactas of both HRC and BHO over Bill Richardson (hispanic, help in the SW and foreign policy experience).

Apologies to all who don\'t like talk of this horse race on the TG board, but the TGJB\'s bet on McCain is looking good at the top of the stretch.

The jock has to fall off or get hit by lightning for me to lose this one.

By the way, a bet is a bet, but McCain ain\'t gonna get my vote. Back in 2000 he was the candidate I liked best, ever, but he ain\'t that guy any more. Worse yet, if it ends up him vs. Hillary, I have to keep my vote in my pocket.

I had no stake in the outcome, but a McCain/Clinton election is pretty much my worst nightmare. That was sealed when Ron Paul asked McCain a question that anyone with a clue about our financial system would have had an opinion on and not only did he not give a coherent answer, he didn\'t even know what Paul was talking about. This country\'s place in the world is now in a permanent long term decline. No one gets what the core economic problem is at a time when the problems are getting dangerously close to causing a major debacle. I\'m thinking of following Jimmy Rogers to Asia.

I don\'t think its over yet. I still think Huckabee can garner some major delegates on Super Tuesday. Then again, I still think my horse has a chance when he\'s down a pole with half a pole to go.

I sense very little love between Clinton and Obama. I don\'t think Clinton, (Bill that is), will relish a role where his advice is worth less than a Plecher steed off the substance. (Which is what his role would be as husband to the Vice President) Also the Clinton\'s effort to paint Obama as \"The Black Candidate\" has certainly worn very thin with Obama because it\'s worn thin with me. I expect Edwards to endorse Obama, Obama to pick up the Edwards faithful and for Edwards to share the ticket with Obama. My belief is that Clinton has had her core supporters all along and the \"Change\" voters have been split between Edwards and Obama. I am extremely eager to right this Nation\'s listing ship with a Democrat, but I will not vote for Clinton. If she\'s the nominee my vote goes third party, perhaps McCain or Huckabee. The problem for the Democrats is that theres millions like me.

CtC \"one in a million\"

Interesting analysis magic. My personal opinion is that the only folks enamored with Gouliani were the folks at Fox. He\'s a bloody car wreck.
