All the more reason for the media to protect him, and for Hillary to fall in love!
I think Hillary will run again for reelection, she needs that position to maintain visibility. And it looks like she will win.
Poll: Sen. Clinton would win re-election
http://www.sciencedaily.com/upi/?feed=TopNews&article=UPI-1-20051001-16370200-bc-us-clintonpoll.xml
POUGHKEEPSIE, N.Y., Oct. 1 (UPI) -- If the election were held today, Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., would win with 52 percent of the vote, found a Marist College poll.
Thirty-two percent said they would definitely vote against Clinton having a second term, reported the New York Daily News Saturday.
About 50 percent assume Clinton will run for president in 2008, although 53 percent say they would rather she didn't.
Forty percent of New Yorkers say they want the junior senator to run for president, 8 percent would like to wait and see who runs against her, and 8 percent are unsure.
The survey of 707 registered voters was conducted by telephone Sept. 26 and 27 in proportion to the voter registration in each county in New York state, and adjusted for turnout in statewide elections.
Obama has been swooned over by the media ever since he made his appearance, and there hasn't been a single negative note. Whether he can preserve that dubious purity after the spotlight of national attention is turned on him is another question, but the media have gotten extremely good at brushing any unwanted facts under the rug.
Does anyone know whether Obama is an American citizen by birth? The Constitution requires a presidential candidate to be American born, and therefore also the VP, since the VP stands to inherit the presidency if something happens to the president. He appears to have been born in Hawaii, which I suppose makes him a native American.
Should I puke now or later?
That was the point FWF was making: she would get two states and no other.
Obama is an electrifying speaker. Too bad he has his head screwed on backwards.
You've got that right! Lucky for us, I don't think they'd have a snowball's chance in hell.
Hillary should be used to Blacks, after all she was married to the first black president, and Obama is after all half white..I can hardly wait for Teddy to campaign for Obama....
If its Clinton/Obama, no chance to win.
The Dems need a ticket that will appeal to moderates and
Clinton/Obama have no hope of doing that. Their only ace up the sleeve would be to polarize the country. Haven't the rats learned after two unsuccessful presidential election cycles, that just does NOT work ?
I hope it is Clinton /Obama. The pubs will put 'em down again. Of course the rat logic is that elections are entertainment and the ticket of max entertainment would be Clinton/Obama. A titillating ticket with nae hope of winning, but think of the wonderful press ops! And the imagry, a frigid Hillary warming to the coal of Obama's fires. Whew , heady stuff!
If this ticket illustrates the best election strategy the rats can think of, they are far, far , behind the learning curve! Its a goood sign for the pubs.
What a great bumper sticker that would make...
Clinton/Osama Obama '08
A Jeb Bush ticket would be suicide for the Republicans. G.H.W. Bush was a good man, but was politically a moderate wimp who alienated conservatives. G.W. Bush is also a good man, but is no conservative (he ran as a "uniter, not a divider" and has consistently backed off from conservative positions and kissed up to liberals). Have you ever heard the old saying "Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me"? A third Bush would be "Fool me three times, you must think I'm a complete idiot and I probably am!"
Cheney's heart condition rules him out, and Rice would need some SERIOUS conservative credentials to get past the nominating process.
The best hope for the Republicans is to look at conservative governors (few and far between) as well as senators and representatives. Find someone who energizes the base (Tancredo or Allen, as examples), but also has the killer instinct needed to defeat the Hildebeast. You know that with two Communists on their ticket (Clinton and Obama) the Democraps would pull out all the stops to destroy any GOP candidate. Such a candidate MUST AT ALL COSTS be a TRUE and UNABSHED conservative....and one with enough blood lust to send Hitlery and Osama Obama to a political grave. Another moderate just WILL NOT DO.
My fear is that the blue bloods in the Republican Party will have control and will nominate someone "respectable," and not the blue collar street fighter needed to destroy the Traitor Party once and for all. Bush, Cheney and Rice are all "respectable." "Respectable" gets you beaten when you take on the True Believers....and for all her many faults, Hitlery is a true believer in Marxism, as is Obama. You can't defeat them with "respectability." Be ready to look for someone who is a conservative true believer with the fire in the belly to b*tch slap the Dems back into submission....where they belong!
What southern state could Clinton/Obama win?
Someone needs to remember the heart and soul of the democratic party is filled with the likes of Senator Robert Byrd, Gov. George Wallace and Gov. Lester Maddox. I remember Kerry sailboarding off Nantucket and skiing in Vail, yet I don't remember seeing any blacks enjoying these endeavors with him.
Hillary and Obama will set a record with 60% or better polling in their favor, yet only 30% actually pulling a lever in their favor.
It really doesn't matter who the dems pick in 08 it will be close because the country is split.
The title implies that she's hooking up with Reno.
I can't think of a single things Obama adds to the Hillary ticket that benefits her. Therefore, as much as the media would like to see this, it won't happen.
Why would Hillary pick Obama as VP in 2008? She already has 85% of the black vote. I think she will pick Clark to give her a military man as a running mate. Someone to make her look like a strong leader. (Barf)
That's my point. These are two solid "blue" states. A Republican will never win them anyway. So. Since she was going to get Illinois anyway, what sense does it make to pick the guy with the terrorist sounding name.
Obama is their great hope for 2012 or 2016.
He will have only been a senator for 4 years come 2008.
