Look McCain has no executive experience at all just like Obama. Also no Republican in modern times has won the Presidency without the South. So McCain needs to put either Mark Sanford or Haley Barbour on the ticket. Again we also don’t know the state of McCain’s Health and the VP slot is really important.
Obama in my opinion would be a huge disaster as President as he has absolutely NO EXECUTIVE EXPERIENCE what so ever.
Just think of the people he will appoint and hire to work for him. This guy is so green it really is scary.

No one who genuinely wants a future in politics is going to be MacQueeg’s running mate.

If Condi won’t take the veep slot, let’s ask Al Sharpton.

Best suggestion I've seen today. No one with half a brain who wants a future in politics is going to want to be MacQueeg's running mate...No one.

“Pundits say a McCain/Rice combination would be unbeatable.”

Those are the same “Pundits” who said McCain was the best choice for the GOP and America. Their credibility is about as substantial as Zogby is a Pollster.

McCain will still lose by 50% or more regardless of his VP choice.

How this pseudo-Republican that tried to hand this country over to 20 million illegals could ever hope to lead the Grand Old Party is beyond me. And now he’s going to try to bolster his campaign by adding Condoleeza Rice to form an “Ebony & Ivory” ticket. It’s not going to work for me.

Why is Mad Maddy so busy these days that he had to ask for her political and foreign policy twin?

McCain will win the South by default because both Hillary and Obama are unelectable down here. He doesn’t need a southern running mate. I’m not necessarily against one, I’m just saying he should look elsewhere, probably to the Midwest, for his running mate. Nothing against Sanford and Barbour but McCain will carry any states where they’re popular no matter what.

Here I am, giving McCain advice, and I’m not even supporting him. :-)

I am interested in seeing what he does, though, in this campaign.

None of the above, she is beyond gender and race. People see her through the gender and race maze.
She is intelligent, and to me has Gravitas.

Look at the source. It’s BS. I like the idea, but it’s BS.

f this happens, sure as hell some nitwit on the Today show is going to ask, “Is this country ready for a black woman as vice-president?”

If this happens, Joy Behar and her pals are going to be in quite the quandry.

Since they are so...ah..uh...unbiased.

“and it had nothing to do with affirmative action.”

Are you saying if she gave the affirmative that you wouldn’t go into action?

That’s what I’m talking about.


Besides, a tag team match between McCain/Rice and Hillary/Obama would be priceless.

Might turn out a ‘draw’ though.

Bolton is far more knowledgeable on foreign policy than Rice. Rice is Mad Maddys twin on policy. Same policies same mistakes. Rice is smart in some ways but lacks common sense and ignores the history of the M.E. tribes as well.

“... McCain has a hot blonde daughter, enough for lady lovers like me to vote for him....”

I don’t get it. You’re gay? Or you’re lascivious? My comment on McCain’s handicapped black daughter is that it was kindness on his part to adopt this child.

You are saying there is a lust factor in candidates with hot offspring? If so I think Bush would have had the “lust” vote.

You are SPOT ON on with the Michael Steele idea. I saw him speak at a dinner two weeks ago and that guy is fabulous.

He is ,however, a conservative and I think he would have the same problems with McCain that all REAL conservatives do.

You all want us to believe some fairytale that McCain will do something he has never done before: stand up to Democrats on principle and actually push through a conservative agenda, including judges.

Go ahead and play make-believe all you want. The man is a Democrat’s best friend, and he will never abandon his bipartisan bent.

Even after he knew the type of justices Ginsberg and Breyer were, he boasted about voting for them. No regrets.

Haley Barbour would do it for me. I’ve liked him going all the way back to when he was the chair of the GOP. I love to hear him talk!

Why would he pick the “Invisible Girl”? She hasn’t been seen in months and she ain’t a conservative.
