They're Off!

Hey, it's the first day of the 2008 presidential election campaign. Never mind all that shit over the last year, it begins tonight.

A frightening possibility: outgoing Salt Lake City mayor Rocky Anderson, a close friend of Ralph Nader's, refused yesterday to dismiss the rumor that Nader will run again for president (although he did say the running mate won't be Kucinich). Nader-Rocky? Will we need two big sticks to crack over their heads and finally allow a reasonable human being to run the GOP jackals out of town??

My Iowa predictions, just under the wire: Dems go Obama-Edwards-Clinton; Republicans Huckabee-Romney-whogivesashit.
