Poll question: Obama VP poll Round 4 Theme: Ex-Candidate Edition
I am not posting a pro/con analysis.... since everyone should know these choices pretty well. I didn't list them in any particular order (so don't flame me.) I would have listed Hillary here...except she is already listed in Round 2's poll.



Please vote in the previous polls if you haven't done so already.

Crossover choices:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=5440085&mesg_id=5440085

Woman of the party:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x5410948

Virginia choices:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=5401703&mesg_id=5401703

After I poll most potential vp choices I will start doing runoffs. In order to make it to the runoffs a candidate must hit 20% of the vote in the poll they are in. (So take that into effect when you vote)

2. Richardson not a strong debater
Then again, not all strong debaters win elections, so we'll see.

5. Vilsack. Only Vilsack.

If for no other reason, I loved Jon Stewart's animated duck looking to heaven and screaming, "Vilsaaaaaaaack!!!!" when he dropped out.

Here's the duck:

I'll see if I can find the scream.

6. Dodd, because he won't overshadow and he takes orders well.
He is BLAND, he has white hair, which makes him appear "experienced." He's been sucking up AGGRESSIVELY of late, too.

Gov. Bill Richardson is too much brown on one ticket. Plus, he's a disloyal type--if he screwed Clinton, he'll screw Obama.

Fmr. Sen. John Edwards will not take the job. He has said so and I think he means it.

Sen. Joe Biden is a motor mouth. He just canNOT shut up and he'll overshadow the candidate.

Rep. Denis Kucinich would guarantee a McCain Presidency. Absurd idea.

Fmr. Gov. Tom Vilsack's last name sounds way too much like Ball Sack. Sorry, but it does.

Fmr. Sen. Mike Gravel is batshit crazy, and isn't he running on a fringe ticket now, anyway? Another "Guaranteed McCain Presidency" candidate.

I don't see any of these people on any D ticket. But...ya never know.
