"College Week" - CNN's American Morning
The hosts pick a Democrat and Republican student for the show.
First surprise was the Republican student going for Ron Paul. The hosts instead asked which "top-tier" candidate she would pick.
Second surprise was the Democrat student preferring any Democrat candidate because no one wants Bush. It doesn't matter who it is as long it is a Democrat.

Democrat Rachel Moore weighs in for her side: "It doesn't really matter who gets the ticket because anybody could be a better president than President Bush at this point, and let's focus on just a Democrat winning in 2008, and put aside everything pre-primary politics."
"That's not the question," interjects Sanchez. "If you had to pick somebody, who would you pick?"
"I'd pick a Democrat," responds Moore, to the hosts' amazement. "Let's face it..."
"You're going to make a great senator one day," quips Sanchez.

Sanchz follows up: "If it was Porky Pig, would you vote for him just because he's a Democrat?"
"Now, that's taking it a little far," says Moore.
Sanchez: "So you do consider who the person is, right?"
"I didn't say that, sir," says Moore.
"It's time for a Democrat to win. Let's focus on that first."
