I’ve read bits and pieces of the various diaries and flame wars over Obama and Edwards, touting Hillary, praising Richardson, laughing at Biden, etc..., one thing remains perfectly clear to me -- all of you are backing the wrong candidate.
Face it, if you want honesty, integrity, a fire in the belly, good solid foreign policy and domestic policy credentials -- and good hair (don't underestimate the hair factor folks) -- then you need to look to someone who currently isn't in the Democratic field.
What Democrats really want is a candidate who is equal part wonk and equal part rock star; a candidate who will inspire you to fight the good fight, who cares about his fellow Americans, who will get serious about getting us off of our dependence on oil and fossil fuels, who simply can communicate in complete sentences.
Well, IMHO, while all of the Democratic candidates can speak in complete sentences, they’re all missing that "something" special, i.e., they don’t go to "11". There is one potential candidate out there though who is both a true rock star, a policy wonk, and potentially a quality presidential candidate.
