My personal choice would be McCain.

Of the Democrats, I like Lieberman the best.

Niether of these two scare me.

I agree on both counts. Isn't it unfortunate that the truly credible
candidates don't seem to be able to make it through the primaries any
longer?

I don't like Lieberman that much. I can't put my finger on why.
He seems off somehow. I like McCain. Too bad we don't have
him now.

He is nowhere near extreme enough to win the support of the Falwell
branch of the Republicans. I voted for McCain in the primary last
time, but the unfortunate state of affairs is that the parties are
controlled by activists and the activists tend to be extremists. When
you get right down to it, abortion is the only real litmus test for
these folks...the rest is just noise and smoke. I would vote for
McCain in a minute over anyone on either side, but he is like a man on
an island in Washington.

That's it in a nutshell. Sad, but true.

He is greatly respected by all in DC, but kept at arm's length by the GOP
machine. He is a republican and will support Bush, but he'll never gain the
support of the party bosses.

There were some silly rumblings as to whether he'd be willing to defect and
run on a democrat ticket. Never happen. He's conservative through and
through, despite being somewhat more centrist than the religious right.

The strongest argument I've heard so far against Lieberman is conjecture as
to whether he would place the needs of Israel above those of Middle East
peace? Or above those of this country. I don't think either question is
valid, but that's what I've heard.
