A Theory

"What If All The Shining Stars Self Destruct?"



Inasmuch as everyone is advancing their own theory of whether Hillary is wounded mortally or not; and that Obama and Edwards might find themselves the front runners, how about a different view that suggests everyone is wrong…

Including all of the experts!....





until recently, Hillary retained her number one spot, Obama was number two and slipping with Edwards a distant third.



But the last debate turned it into a free for all. And that could hinder not help the other candidates. The trouble is that the Republicans are caught up in the same thing and if anything, attacking each other more than the dems…



What if they all go down in flames: Mitt, Giuliani, Obama, Edwards, Hillary?….



It could happen.



In fact, many of the people I've talked to said that they have not made up their mind as to who to support--with some of those people being died in the wool democrats or republicans. I spoke to one republican fund raiser who told me that she would vote for Biden in a heart beat....and some considering a deux ex machina to come out from stage left and solve all of our electoral needs.



Too much exposure before the Primary; too much said. Usually, in this case of politicians, too much exposure kind of equates with the contempt of the electorate.



If that’s the case, those relegated to the second tier can figure out how to emerge from the shadows.



Now, what if the voters decide that “the more they know them, the less they like them.”



This seems to be happening among the Republicans as well; nobody seems to represent the conservative and the religious segments of the Party and nobody is particularly excited about any of the candidates in the first tier.



Will this produce a climate for second tier candidates, or, alternatively, will it establish a climate for a Third Party?



Or will somebody else pop out of the background?



Newsweek is already calling Hillary “slick Hillary” and at the same time, popularizing a call for Mayor Bloomberg to join the fray.



Bloomberg has the money, the smarts and the team to make a difference should Bloomberg decide to go for it.



The only person who might cause him to back off is the sudden reappearance of the prophet of the environment, Al Gore, who seems to have little motivation or inclination to go for the gold again.



Therefore, that being the case, this election may be more a free for all than anyone is willing to admit and don’t count out the second tier candidates.



It could still wind up being Richardson against Ron Paul or

Joe Biden facing the former representative from Tennessee, Fred Thompson….



Anything could happen and as they say, “It ain’t over ’til it’s over…”





Pass out the blankets and the popcorn. This may be too good to miss!
