Kerry for VP?

[ray of light]

Tell me it's not so! I had my heart set on someone who doesn't piss off the Republicans. Someone who the media adores. Someone who has done an outstanding job opposing Bush's actions. Someone who has a solid "in" with the lobbyists.

Go LIEberman go! Why support Kerry for VP when LIEBERMAN is searching for a new position?

[Dinger]

1. Fuck It, I'll Say It

Skull & Bones. It's why he didn't fight for the votes in 2004. It's why he didn't bring it up in the debates. Edwards would have been better. At least he wanted to fight.

[ray of light]

4. OMG...he was a BOYSCOUT TOO. Another good reason to have LIEBERMAN

LIEBERMAN ain't no boyscout and if the only skull and bones on him are...well...tasteless.

[blm]

12. Wrong - Edwards wanted to WAIT till morning to concede and Kerry agreed with him

It was the Dem party election legal team that wanted to concede earlier. That is who Edwards was heard arguing with - the same election legal team who told Gore he HAD the math to challenge, told Kerry the math was against him.

Further, it was the DNC under McAuliffe (Clinton loyalist) who made SURE that Kerry and any Dem nominee wouldn't have the proof to contest as McAuliffe sat on his hands for the entire four years after 2000s theft, as the GOP and the RNC gained control of the election process in most states at every level where the votes are allowed, cast and counted.

15. HEY. What do you think FACTS matter? Paleese! We want to have someone

who is approved by both the corporate parties. That would be corporate Dems (DLC) and all Republicans.

LIEberman fits the corporate media's talking points exactly!

LIEberman for VP.

[beachmom]

2. Why not have Dick Cheney stay on? I mean, that would mean

a seamless transition. Good lord, we don't want to pick anyone who the media will be mean to or anything.

[ray of light]

7. Bonus for LIEberman there too. Afterall, to follow Darth Vadar would make him look

like Luke Skywalker gone to the Dark side.

[cprompt]

3. oh please

NOOOOOO

[Sensitivity]

5. That would be a bold choice. Someone who is NOT a media darling. Of course there is Hagel . .

who would get a bunch of Dems hopping mad.

[ray of light]

6. Dobson! He should pick Dobson! We need some Christian Compassion-Conservatism.

So if LIEberman's off the list...maybe we can go for the total right wing by picking Dobson.

[dailykoff]

8. Works for me.

I don't see the problem with pissing off the haters and Kerry is a good prosecutor and as Senate president would turn that circus into Nuremberg on the Potomac. :shrug:

[ray of light]

10. Ah..but you're using good logic. An anti-corruption VP who KNOWS the law!

AND who has been a prosecutor.

F*** That. I want a guy who buried the Katrina crimes for the last two years, who made kissy-face with the President, and who backstabs the Democratic Nominee.

Oh...and I really adore the Senators who sleep with lobbyists. You did know that Mrs. LIEberman is a lobbyist now, right?

Keeping it in the family. That's what's important about a VP candidate!

;-)

[dailykoff]

14. Yes I think I'm catching your drift.

Somebody "we need to win swing voters" you mean. ;)

[ray of light]

17. swinging? Um...that does sound awfully republican!

[femmocrat]

11. If not Edwards, then Kerry would be OK, IMO.

He has military and foreign creds at least.

(I prefer him to Hillary.)

[ray of light]

13. Which Edwards? Elizabeth or John?

Gosh...We may want ONLY a woman VP candidate. Elizabeth would be top-notch!

uh..oh...

Can't have Elizabeth. The Republicans don't like her. And Ann Coulter would turn into a stark raving mad..wo..um wo/man?

[Mass]

9. No, I want a Republican. We need somebody who has voted for most of Bush's bills.

It is so much better.

[ray of light]

16. Tell John McCain that LIEBerman is OUR VP. He can't have him!

After all, he's steeling everything else from the DNC and from the USA. (Two-for-oner).

[sandnsea]

18. No, sorry

If we can go baggage free, we should.

[ray of light]

19. but...but..but..LIEberman is small enough to fit in someone's baggage.

[sandnsea]

21. Lieberman has his own baggage

Napolitano, Sebelius, Kaine, Kitzhaber, Schweitzer - There are a lot of possibilities that don't carry the assinine "Massachusetts liberal" garbage. I'd love for it to be John Kerry, but winning is more important.

[dailykoff]

25. Wasn't JFK a Massachusetts liberal?

That will be the least of our problems.

[ray of light]

27. Mass Liberal is worse than a bush-a-kisser. 'Cuz Bush is so well loved and there's no buyer's remor

buyer's remorse out here!

[ray of light]

26. Media provides free baggage and free airfare anywhere in the country for all Democratic candidates.

This is a two-for-oner. LIEberman provides his own baggage so that the media doesn't have to take creative writing courses.

Of course...as we speak, Rove is already providing the media with some messy baggage from the "unclaimed baggage" department. They don't even ask for shipping/ownership tags.

They just hand that unclaimed baggage out to any Dem.

[YvonneCa]

28. Boy do they...

...EVER! :7

[ray of light]

29. Ruperts now on the AP board. So we should run LIEberman by him.

We already know what he'll say about all other Dems!

[YvonneCa]

30. He'll offer to...

...carry their baggage. :)

[ray of light]

31. He's got their baggage ready and waiting for them!

[beachmom]

35. I doubt who Obama picks will matter electorally speaking.

There is an argument to be made that he should pick someone loyal, someone who can help with Capitol Hill, someone who has the expertise and experience. I still think SoS is a better fit for JK; but I disagree with your assertion that Kerry will sink Obama's chances. Obama will win or lose on his own merits, not on a VP. The VP is more important AFTER the election.

[ray of light]

36. Well, two words also cover it, "Buyer's remorse"

[sandnsea]

37. "sink" is a stronger word than I would use

I'm just saying that JK does bring some problems and I'm fine with it if Obama thinks there are other possibilities with easier problems to deal with. Who he chooses gives an inclination of his beliefs and will give further ammunition to the tax and spend liberal garbage.

[elocs]

20. Please, please, no--a thousand times no. ( I really don't see this happening, though). n/t

[globalvillage]

22. Silly.

Who wants a smart, honest, liberal, environmentalist who speaks out for the Constitution, against the war, for the middle class and the poor - who's strong on foreign policy, has tons of experience, and kicks ass in debates? He might do something stupid like investigate corruption (or something equally dastardly).

I like Jeb. Can't have an administration without a Bush. Go JB!

[ray of light]

23. Not me! That's for dang certain. I'd rather have a lieing two-faced..um...

[ray of light]

34. LIEberman (heart) JEB Bush. Another reason LIEberman would help

Obama.

What a GREAT way to add more people to the Democratic Party!

[barack the house]

24. Ooo yeah he's got military credentials and what they pulled on Clark would prohibit it for Kerry.

[BobRossi]

32. Just say fuck no!

Now go wash your brain!

[ray of light]

33. OOOO-la la......a little "love" triangle.

McCain can't have our LIEberman. After all, the red tie is sure to bring in the RED states!
