He's the only candidate right now that could actually inspire me to get out and actively campaign. And, as you and I discussed, he can bring in the Hispanic vote.<br><br>As for Condi, I have my reservations. Would her proabortion tendencies have any effect on overturning Roe v. Wade? Maybe as VP, she would not have an opportunity to exercise her opinions on abortion, however, if she served as VP, she would be a strong Presidential pick in the future. Do we want to set up a proabortion candidate for the Presidency?
