Hillary would be an awefull pick for the Dems in 08, that alone would almost guarantee the Republicans keep the Presidency. The two people with the best chance from the Democrats in 08 are Warner and Bill Richardson.
I wouldn't say Hillary is an awfull choice...Hillary vs McCain? IMO, it's a scary head to head...While I agree on many of the things Hillary has spoken about, I'm not sure if I trust her. Same thing with McCain...he says one thing and votes against it the next day.
I like Warner a lot and I hope he has a strong plan...he's already creaping up on Hillary as far as funding. He's well spoken, sticks to his plan, does what he says, and he appeals to NASCAR fans and traditional southerners.
