Another issue would be the VP pick. If McCain picks a Black VP like Steele, or Watts, he is pandering, if he doesnt, he is racist..

He Whose Middle Name Must Not Be Named would be a complete fool to get on the same ticket with that woman. As VP, Obama would be constantly vieing with Bill for Hillary’s ear. Obama would be a complete nonentity in that little love triangle. Talk about a bucket of warm spit. And for him to accept Hillary as his VP ... well, let’s just say he’d be very nervous every time he gets on a plane that doesn’t carry her too. (Or should be.)

Hillary knows all this. She’s just sucking up in public so that he looks ungracious if he tries to fight back against her.

Maybe. But McCain is crazy and arrogant so God only knows who he’ll pick. Maybe liberman or some other democrat for all we know.

Two loose cannon spouses. Maybe Bill and Michelle can date.

eeeeewwww! It’s a bit early for that!

Maybe I'm wrong here, but when you're the losing candidate, and would have to win every contest from here on out by 25 points or so (impossible for Hillary), you're not the one giving out VP invitations, you're the one hoping you'll get a VP invitation.

But I think when people go to the polls they will think hard and long about who they elect.

Why would they put any more rational thought into it than they did when they voted in the primary? You think a lot of Dhimmies are going to suddenly snap out of it and vote rationally? You think Republicans are going to out number Dhimmmie's in the November voting with the sorry candidate they have to vote for?

I hope you are right, but I suspect most soc-libs that voted for the evil Hitlery or Obamessiah will still use the same lack of logic, the same irrational emotions, and the same utter distain for conservatism to vote for the dhimmie candidate rather than not vote or vote for McInsane. The Dems are hungry and energized to reclaim the White House they've been out of for the last 8 years. The GOP has got fat and lazy (again) and offered a lib wanna-be candidate that turns conservatives stomach.

Again, I hope you are right, but I'm concerned I that I see the same overconfident GOP behavior that I saw in 1991 and the same offering up of an old toady candidate because it's "his time" that I saw in 1995. In both occurences we got our heads handed to us on a silver platter.

It's true that the Dims came out in record numbers to support their candidate. Neither one will have enough delegates to win the nomination outright. So one will be selected and one will not be. I do not think that either would accpet a VP under the other. Thus the losers supporters will be less motivated to come out and vote on election day, or if they do may even be inclined to vote for McCain. Not all democrats are like the radical ones we see on our TV's or in Congress. I know several that have said if it is Hillary they will probably vote McCain. Conservatives, on the other hand, will start to honestly look at the real consequences of what four years with either Clinton or Obama as President will mean for this country and to their families and will come out in bigger numbers then is assumed they will.

Bush daddy lost because the press invented a bad economy, if Bush son were running he would lose - because there is truth to a bad ecomony. Not Bush's fault BTW, but he will still get the blame. Dole was nominated because republicans nominated him. The Republican Party does not select the nominee much to the prattlings one hears around here. Only democrats have the power to select their nominee.

Now why would Clinton want anything but the top of the ticket? She says it isn’t about her, or for power, she’s running because she wants to do things for America. Well, what can the veep do? If she’d agree to the #2 spot, it’s for glory and a place in the line of succession. IOW it’s for HER.

It wouldn’t strengthen the ticket either. People don’t vote for the veep. Dems won’t avoid voting for BHO just because his running mate is not Hillary.

If she really wanted to do things for America she could reach an agreement with Obama that she will be Sec of State. That at least involves work. But no!

We are not fooled. It’s all about her. Her and arkancide.

Well said. The fact that she is trying to tear a fellow Democrat to pieces is just a glimpse of what she'd try to do to McCain. McCain will be wishing it was 2000 and that he was only facing Rove's people.

I hope all the idiots who took Rush's advice and voted for Hillary to drag things out or because they think she's easier to beat feel really good about themselves, especially if she does go head-to-head with McCain. They have no room to bitch if she actually wins.

Agree TOTALLY. I have been dreading this scenario for a long long time. Obviously, the GOP hasn’t ever seriously considered this nightmare. GOP brains have been out to lunch and out of touch.

These two on the same ticket will ride into the White House.
We don't have the clout to defeat this.
This is my worst nightmare.

OTOH, that may be the catalyst that galvanizes the conservative base and gets them to the polls.
We will need every single person who considers themselves Patriots and true believers in the Constitution as written voting in order to beat the turnout a klintoon/hussien ticket will generate on the dhimmicrat side.

With her as VP, he won’t have much work to do. He can golf, do fundraisers, public appearances, travel, while she works to promote her policies. All he’ll need to do is a weekly signing ceremony in the Rose Garden.

Well, that just might be the "change" he is talking about - a useless president on deck who has no idea where he's headed, with a vicious vp steering the ship toward the same disasters she previously visited. LOL.

“I also think that a Hillary/Obama ticket will be formidable in November, and the odds-on favorite to win.”

I doubt it. They are both too liberal. Add to that the loathing that at least half the country has towards Hildibeast. Many, both Republicans and Democrats, would crawl through broken glass to prevent Hildibeast from winning anything. I think the Dems only chance is Obama, without Hildibeast. People don't hate him, so many who would otherwise vote for McCain if Hildibeast was on the ticket, might stay home.
