2. It's really great he grew a spine
but where the hell was in while he was in office?

If I support him now will he just let down again?

29. My thoughts exactly. And from someone with
2 posts who I see has been tombstoned. Good grief. Daschle may not be a ball of fire but racist? The freepers are really getting desperate.:eyes:

6. That would never happen.
They creamed him once and they could do it again. He is not trusted by the population overall.

15. I agree
He'd be easy for them to get I think. I don't think so. He seems like a nice guy and all but nah.

9. Daschle would make a great governor of South Dakota.....
and thats where he should set his sights. He'll never make it back to the senate and his delusions of presidential grandeur are absurd.

Tom should know better. He's not a stupid man but he's evidently a trifle self-centered if he imagines national office at this point.

I'd vote for him rather than a bushie, but there are plenty of others i'd prefer.

21. Absolutely not. Tom should enjoy his free time, working as a private
citizen, if he chooses, to help get Democrats elected. But a prominent, public role within the Democratic Pary - I don't think it would good for the country, the party, or himself.

I hope he comes to realize this sooner rather than later.

To run for POTUS? I can't even imagine it.

25. I like him better than King Dumbass**, obviously
or Frist or Gingrich or whoever else the repukes cough up for '08 -- but as a Dem primary candidate? He'd be somewhere down there below Carol Moseley-Braun. His only edge would be that he's from a state that adjoins Iowa. After that, it'd be straight downhill from there. Think "Gephardt II: Electric Boogaloo".

consider a very bad thing.

45. Not just no, but HELL NO!
Though it sucks that South Dakota lost a senate seat, Daschle is not missed by anybody I know.
