Politics and the talking heads

I was watching George Stephanopoulos' sunday morning show today and one of his panelists made a number of assumptions and conclusions that weren't based on any merit -- but the one I feel compelled to comment on is that Republican's aren't supporting Mitt Romney because he is Mormon. It is kind of a laughable statement -- certainly it doesn't reflect why I don't like or support him -- he just doesn't strike me as trustworthy, or having a moral base. It is no simpler than that.
To illustrate my general sense of the general political spectrum, I think you can sum it up in three major categories: 1) Do I agree with them, 2) Do I trust them, and 3) would they be effective.
Edit: Adjusted Guiliani rank to reflect various FactCheck.org articles
Candidate:	Party	In Agreement	Is Trustworthy	Would be Effective	Total (useful only for approx ranking)
Duncan	R	90%	90%	70%	250
Alan	R	90%	90%	60%	240
Mike Huck	R	80%	80%	60%	220
Fred	R	80%	80%	60%	220
Ron	R	80%	80%	50%	210
Tom Tan	R	70%	80%	50%	200
Sam	R	70%	50%	60%	180
Mitt	R	80%	30%	60%	170
Rudy	R	50%	50%	70%	170
John Mc	R	50%	70%	50%	170
Bill Ri	D	40%	60%	70%	170
Hillary	D	30%	40%	90%	160
Barack	D	20%	60%	60%	140
Joe Bi	D	40%	40%	50%	130
John Ed	D	20%	20%	50%	90

I think this pretty much captures my sense of the candidates. I think John Edwards would be the best Democratic nominee -- because it would be easiest to beat him (as he is so obviously fake). Bill Richardson strikes me as the best Democratic candidate for President (e.g. he would make the best President out of the bunch).


On the Republican side -- if the nominee isn't Alan Keyes, Duncan Hunter, Fred Thompson, or Mike Huckabee, I'm probably going to vote 3rd party...
