Interviews with dozens of Republicans across the country this Labor Day weekend found that despite the already lengthy campaign, which started almost a year ago, many candidates have made either no impression or a negative one, and many voters are still chewing over their options.
Then again, with John McCain and Rudy Giuliani trying to out Cheney each other, Mitt Romney's flip-flopping, and Fred Thompson campaign from the seat of a golf cart, why would they? And how about on our side?
Forget the “lesser-of-the-evils” talk typically heard from Democratic primary voters around this time of a presidential campaign. Interviews with dozens of Democrats here and across the country this Labor Day weekend found them enthusiastic about their presidential choices and, if slightly nervous about potential weaknesses in their candidates, confident of victory in 2008.
Say goodbye to invasions of privacy and oil-rich nations, and hello to universal health care and alternative energy. Looks like we have a lot to be happy about: just remember these candidates don't elect themselves, we need to get in gear, and work hard for our people at all levels of the ticket.
