Webb definitely seems trustworthy. That's pretty much the reason Ron Paul became such a figurehead even though some of his ideas are retarded. Hopefully Webb will do better.

I haven't thrown in to support anyone in a campaign capacity yet, but probably by Autumn.

I don't even see much press on Hillary either way. She has clearly been laying low.

Woody, you clearly know nothing of Webb's victory in VA. Remember, also, the first primary is a ways off. Anyone looking at poll numbers now is seeing nothing but name recognition before the race starts.

Remember that when you knock GOP candidates for their poll numbers.

which I haven't, with the sole exception of noting head-to-heads with Hillary and the equally well known names in the GOP. Given the consistency of those, it simply suggests uphill sledding for any candidate that party puts up in 2016.

And I asked you to link those polls of Hillary vs GOP. Still don't see them

I linked them a few months ago once. If it really interests you, bookmark RealClear Politics website, and you can follow the changes hourly, if you wish. For the record, since I posted those original numbers, Hillary has dropped markedly, but is still quite a bit ahead in hypothetical races. She doesn't trail anyone.

Here you go. As of one week ago even Fox News is reporting Clinton ahead of everyone except Jeb, and he only leads by one point. In the Democratic race Clinton is up 50 points over all contenders. Her numbers are slightly higher when considering all sources combined. *Shrugs*

Webb 2016! (until I find someone better, which may not happen)

most of them ARE familiar to the electorate. Hillary is dropping, for trust reasons, and rightly so. The fact that she still beats them all speaks volumes. Let's see what Webb can do to her juggernaut. I am quite convinced that the nation is going to elect whoever the Dems pick, due to demographics and negative national image of the GOP.

The more familiar I get with most of the prominent GOP candidates, the more terrified I become of them. That party has lost its goddamn mind.

What terrifies me are the clueless voters like you who would vote for more of the same.
