What if Barack Obama Chooses Hillary as his V.P.?
John McCain and the RNC will look like TOTAL ASSHOLES. They've spent the entire year pumping up Hillary, saying how great she is, how experienced, etc and then wooing her supporters as if he really cares.

What will they have to say? "Never mind all of that talk. We were just joshing." :rofl:

He would instantly be seen as a total FAILURE on all fronts. He is already seen as a failure, but in some quarters, he still has some limited appeal. LOL!

The ONLY thing he has to run on is the fact he was a POW for five years in Vietnam. How many other POWS were there in Vietnam? Should we all consider them as well for POTUS? Wes Clark DEMOLISHED him on Morning Joe last week. I would like to see more of that. Why assume McCain knows what he is talking about in regards to Foreign Affairs just because he was in the Navy. How many soldiers have been POWs and have DIED in wars? That alone does not make one a leader.

1. Any two senators on a ticket is political suicide.
Hillary on this ticket, doubly so.

5. I'm not saying he should put her on
but I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to see McCain's face if he does! That would be LOVELY. What would he have to say? What COULD he say? Would he try to trash her, right after singing her praises for all of these months? That would be a POWER PLAY, but I doubt Obama would do that. But it would be FUNNY as hell to see.

10. IF that happens...it won't surprise me. We Dems have a way of snatching defeat
