Just in: Bush dumps Cheney and selects Hillary as VP candidate!
Edited on Sun Jul-18-04 10:58 AM by seventhson
Just got this email from someone in the know and it is just like the whole McCain/erry thing except in reverse!

Now I could vote for Bush/Clinton as a unifying ticket - couldn't you?
------------------------------------------------------------

BREAKING NEWS!!!!

OK - you heard it here first. I bet there's a Pulitzer prize waiting for
me but here's the BREAKING NEWS!

Bush is not only going to dump Cheney - but he's going to try to woo
Democrats by putting together a unity ticket. And what Democrat is Bush
going to pick to be his running mate? None other than HILLARY CLINTON!!!!

A Bush / Clinton ticket would be a very powerful ticket because it will
attract a lot of women voters and Clinton supporters. It would alienate
the Right but if its part of a plan to hold onto power - they might go
for it. Besides - who else are they going to vote for? Hillary however
wants to have Cheney's power and use Bush as a puppet president the way
Cheney does. Bush himself doesn't have a problem with that - but Carl
Rove and Donald Rumsfield hate the ticket and want to stick with Cheney.

Did you wonder why Bush was so nice to Bill Clinton last month when he
came to the White House? Well - that's when Bush and Clinton struck a
deal to put Hillary on the ticket. And - the real reason that the
Democrats didn't want to put Hillary on the schedule originally for the
Democratic Convention is because they believe the rumors might be true.

So - you might be thinking - "(name deleted- available on request) - you are a whaco! Do you think
anyone is going to buy a story like this? Is anyone really that stupid?
You're hardly a real journalist!" Well - they bought the Kerry / McCain
ticket story that was just as far out and kept running it even after
Kerry and McCain denied it. And you don't hear Bush denying a Bush /
Clinton ticket. I may end up being wrong on this - but if Bush doesn't
run with Hillary - it won't be because he didn't want to - it will be
that Hillary backed out and he got stuck with his second choice.

2. Yes way!!!
if it is credible that Kerry was considering McCain then why wouldn't it be possible for shrubby-boy to consider Hillary???

Really?

(ur right of course, but that is the point)

5. Democrats won't fall for that
It might mean that he has to spend a little less time and money in Georgia but that's about it.
