Mel Martinez has already done his part as GOP Chairman to seal a 2008 victory for the Democrats.

Could Hillary choose John McCain as her VP if he wins the Republican nomination?

A true Freudian slip. I heard his comment, we have fight hard to stop this nut job. I am not sick yet, but I want to fight this Son of a Bitch McCain.

McPain suits that description.

Bet all the ILLEGALS came out to vote for him.

I can’t believe the GOP would stoop so low as to have McPain as the nominee. It’s no wonder the NYT endorsed McPain. If it is Mcpain and Hillary, I’ll sit home. I can’t vote for McPain.

He may simply have stopped himself from saying "Democrat loses," and changed his wording mid-sentence.

Non story.

Yeah...the Times endorse McCain while sitting on a story that would undermine McCain’s image of “taking the money out of politics”

They don’t publish the story until AFTER the primary so that we get stuck with a lousy candidate that Hill or Obama can beat

‘Freudian slip, perhaps?’

My thought exactly!! Martinez, like his pal, McCain, big RINO. And, Crist just LOVES to get his face on TV.

I am asking if according to the laws we have on the books, could Hillary choose McCain as her VP? There are situations where it could happen,but are there rules AGAINST it?

McCain would take what he could get.

As I was switching back and forth between Fox and MSNBC it occurred to me that Obamma has a real chance of defeating McCain in November. It will be easy to paint McCain as the republican Washington insider and have Obamma take the position that he is the ‘breath of fresh air’ that will ‘change the climate’ in Washington.

Just one more reason we should draft Fred, or, being more realistic, support Romney. Romney seems to be the better opponent to either of the major Dem candidates at this time,and at least he seems to endorse some conservative principles.

for what it is worth......

I imagine the wheeling and dealing has been going on behind the scenes.

I was on JimRob’s thread about McCain and many were saying they would ‘write in’ votes.

I’ve seen a lot of posts about things Rush has said. Since I don’t listen to him I don’t know.

But, everybody is divided and most of their ‘picks’ have not done well so it’s a mess.

I turned the TV off awhile ago.
