Personally, I think that Bill Richardson should be the candidate. He's a centerist, has executive experience, and he'll bring in the Hispanic vote like no one else. I spent 3 or 4 days cussing after he said no to Kerry for the VP spot.
I think that this next election cycle is going to be incredibly interesting with the corruption scandals and Katrina looming over everyone's head. If I lived in a coastal community anywhere along the Gulf or the Eastern Seaboard or in a earthquake-prone area, there's no way that I could vote Republican after the FEMA mess. If the Democrats can take advantage of that fear and promise some concrete changes, they might find some more votes. Then again, taking advantage and concrete changes have never been the national party's strong suit.
