Hunter of DailyKos recently wrote <a href="http://www.dailykos.com/story/2007/8/16/153755/091" rel="nofollow">an interesting piece</a> along these lines.

Then there is always Ron Paul, whom I think has a chance. Even if he's on the right wing side, at least he preaches non-interventionism which can only be helpful.

Clinton's in the lead in the polls at the moment, and I agree with you - she's way too hawkish for me (particularly on the questions of Israel/Palestine and Iran). Obama, Edwards etc. are hardly perfect (far from it), but I <i>would</i> prefer them to Clinton or a Republican. Out of all the Democrat contenders, Kucinich clearly stands out as the best, but everyone knows he hasn't got a hope. Which says a lot, really.

It seems that he'll say anything to get more lobby dollars just to stay in power. Lets just hope that Romney isn't the next one. Or McCain, or Hillary, or Obama or any of them.
