I hate to be the one to break this to you, but you should know that the Presidential candidate from Illinois has no chance in the 2008 Democratic Presidential Primary.

For one thing, the Senator has too little experience, having served only one term in the Senate, and just a few years in the Illinois state congress. And though many people are thrilled by the idea of voting for the first African-American President, thus far the public has been caught up with the demographics and is only vaguely aware of the Senator’s actual policy views.

We do know the candidate worked as a lawyer prior to becoming a public servant, has plenty of friends at the University of Chicago, gives stump speeches that reveal a charismatic, sunny disposition, and is on the left side of the political spectrum.

But despite all this, Carol Moseley Braun is a non-starter in ‘08.
