Is he serious or is he positioning himself as Hillary Clinton's running mate? The "PICK ME, Hillary!" Vice Presidential auditions have officially begun. Tiny Tom does have the inside track because he is non threatening and small enough to fit in her thighness's lap.

Daschle said he will be traveling to states to "sound out presidential themes, talk to voters and get a sense of what kind of a reception I might be getting." I can save little Tommy a few bucks and some pointless travelling...
To: Aussie Dasher
Read your mini bio. So most Aussies still like the US? Glad to hear it (and we definitely like AU), but one would never know it based on encounters with virulently anti-American Aussie chatters in various chat rooms. But Canadian leftists sre worse.

It does raise one's hopes when one one contemplates the "sterling" field from which the Demonrat presidential candidate will be chosen.

I'll be completely supportive of Tom's run for the WH.

If you're a failure in the Senate, what else can you do?
To: Aussie Dasher
Please don't run, Daschele! Please! Purty Please! (caution: reverse psychology being tested here .)

Not a chance.I dunno. SD may be a little too conservative for Dashole but the country as a whole isn't. His odds improve if he successfully fights his way to get the Dem nomination. (Shudder!)

Where are the waters that he's testing. I'd like to pee in it. Perhaps we can all pitch in to build him a small armada.

SD is not even a remotely "swing" state in Presidential elections. Not even McGovern carried the state he won 3 Senate contests in. Edwards didn't help carry NC in '04, and Gore didn't carry my state of TN in '00 (and barely helped in '92 or '96 where Perot deprived the Bush I and Dole the majority).

It was a joke. Like the thought of Tom Daschle running for POTUS.

Have you been following John Howard's trip to the US? Dubya laid it on a treat in DC!
The majority of Aussies regard the US as our best friend and Americans are always made welcome when visiting.

Actually when you said "crucial 3 electoral votes" I was reminded how close some of the recent elections have been...
