  I admire the guy both as a political figure and an actor, but he doesn't have a snowball's chance.

i don't think he's the guy, but he is a sexy vp choice.  he's 3rd in many polls, over guys who have campaigned for a year.

I think if he can come out and start to blast the other candidates and then the dems he does have as good a chance as anybody..he's been kinda wishy washy during some interviews. Repubs want this guy to be the firebrand....

Seems like he would be a good candidate, but I'd like to see him participate in the debates.

I heard him in a radio interview a few months ago, he was doing an awful lot of blaming the Libs for all of our problems. It was typical rhetoric, I wasn't impressed.
