Even most liberals think Hillary would torpedo Kerry's chances.

But it's not about Kerry, is it? And if Kerry doesn't have the testicular fortitude to tell the Toons to take a long walk off a short pier...

Let me go out on a limb with an early prediction on this one... I've really doubt that Kerry would pick anybody whose political star might shine brighter than his - they tend to pick people who will not try to eclipse them within the political spotlight.

I don't think he will ever even seriously consider Hillary, and I even doubt Edwards. I think he'll pick a good, reliable "second stringer", not a potential rival.

It's obvious they are more excited about the VP candidate, whoever that might be, than their boring P candidate.

Typical Democrat psycho-babble.

Like the bottom feeders they are, they scurry about, picking "dead meat" from among the carcasses of the deceased.

After this November they may well begin to understand why they are at the bottom of the food chain.

If you are correct then Kerry will have no hope. Edwards would be his best bet right now. I think people are starting to see what Hillary is all about.

Saddam is available. He claims he isn't a criminal and the real criminal is George Bush.

He has obviously been coached by George Soros and Michael Moore.

Best line of the morning from attorney DiGenova on FoxNews.

I think the French looking Kerry should choose Agore.

"I think the French looking Kerry should choose Agore."

It would be fun to watch how many popular votes Kerry gets if Gore is his VP.

Jacque Chirac is too busy cutting deals with terrorists.

If it is what does that tell us about the pick? That Kerry/Clinton is a sure loser? I don't think Clinton would accept a VP slot if she thought the ticket would win as that then places her another 8 years out for a run herself.... jmo.

It would be a mistake for Hillary too. No way she would run in 2008 if she was the losing VP in 04.

It'll be Max Cleland. From the South, counters Zell Miller (both from Georgia), Vietnam Vet, Senate experience, disabled, beef against Republicans for "questioning his patriotism".
