NANCY PELOSI: COMPROMISE CANDIDATE

Myself | 01-28-2008 | Captain Peter Blood

[Captain Peter Blood]

After watching the events of the last few days I would have to say that there might be a real possibilty of Obama and Clinton heading into the Democratic Convention with neither having enough delegates for Nomination. Is there a real possibility of a "Brokered Convention"?

Here is a real wild card for discussion. In a brokered convention could there be a compromise candidate other than Obama and Clinton?

If so would Nancy Pelosi be considered for such a compromise candidate?

Interesting that Pelosi did not run for President because she is everything and has everything Hillary does not. A very Liberal Track record, lots of experience and is also Speaker of the House. Not to mention she does have better looking legs and a figure than Hillary does.

So Freep on with your opinion!

[Captain Peter Blood]

If Pelosi had run Hillary would have had real problems in my opinion. But what fun it would have been to watch.

[Parley Baer]

If the dimocRAT convention turns into a brokered one that will be real entertaining. The Clinton’s would just explode.

Not to mention she does have better looking legs and a figure than Hillary does.

Lay off thee rum mate!

Hillary will not let anyone stop her from her coronation. It’s her right. She is owed it.

[jmyrlefuller]

Hillary will not let the convention go brokered.

She’ll haul in her superdelegates, magically pull out the Michigan and Florida delegates, and watch as we see Obama win the primaries but lose the nomination.

Then all hell will break loose.

I am going to vent. For months and months, I've been saying that Fear of Hillary was overwrought, that she'd be a gift to the Republican party -- that in fact, any of the Democrat candidates would.

Republicans could have nominated Elmer Fudd and won. And many Republicans passed immediately on the only Limited Government candidates only because they were so cowed into thinking he couldn't win to the Big Bad Hillary.

All along, I said "Bullsh*t." So now we're looking at four Intrusive Government Republicans set to sabotage the Republican Limited Government alternative even worse if they win than if they lose. Grrrrrrrrr. Republicans need to stand up and fight to win the Limited Government war, and if that entails losing a battle or two, that's life. The war is about Limited Government Conservatism versus Intrusive Government Liberalism, not R vs D. Elections are the battles.

One post menopausal, burned out, America hating socialist witch is pretty much the same as another.

Pelosi would get the moonbat constituency. That’s about it.

[Hunble]

Nope, Obama will be our next President.

All that Hillary can do, is to minimize the damage in the next few months.

The Clintons are doing so much damage with their attacks against Obama, that the possibility of Hillary as VP is almost nill.

Ease up on the Peyote, partner, you’ll start seeing goblins soon.

[Wally_Kalbacken]

Put down the crack pipe, bro!

[EQAndyBuzz]

Shirley Jackson Lee should have run. Or maybe trot out Cynthia McKinney.

[oblomov]

Answer: No. Why? One word: Palomino.

[Captain Peter Blood]

Last I heard McKinney was running on the Green Ticket.

[philetus]

I’m just sorry Bozo isn’t running.He would fit right in.

[proudtobeanamerican1]

Paul against Pelosi! What a race!

[plain talk]

I don’t see a brokered convention outcome where someone comes out of the blue and gets the nomination. Maybe that has happened in the past but don’t see it happening in modern times. It will be either Hillary or Obama. The loser will be bought out in some fashion if it comes to it.

[oust the louse]

"Nope, Obama will be our next President."

OBAMA can't beat Mitt. He will eat up Obama. Obama stands for nothing. He can't talk issues and that's what people will understand once he gets in front of a camera vs a Republican.

Not to mention she does have better looking legs and a figure than Hillary does.

Lay off thee rum mate!

San Fran Nan has the best looks she can afford. She's still an old woman, it shows through the expensive veneer.

All the botox and the surgery can play slight of hand and distract the viewer from noticing the ravages of time. But despite that, no matter what she does, her soul remains visible.

[valkyry1]

I agree.
