I do not see that happening.
If it does happen, regardless of who is on top, such a ticket might win the popular vote by a large number (easily larger than in 2000), with CA, Illinois, and NY States going hog wild (tofu wild) over the two, but lose anyway.
I would hate to face that ticket though, however structured, given the weirdness of how this election’s going.
As a contributor observed , never thought I’d see a hitler and a hussein in the WH. Ghastly beyond belief.
I guess the Republic would survive, but only if all checks and balances are firing on all cylinders simultaneously for four years.
My guess is, the dems will lose more votes by snubbing Obama than gain votes by nominating Her Lowness. In other words, elderly and middle aged low class poorly educated white females and feminist and bitter single women are more likely to go back into the dem fold than dissed Obama’s supporters, who just won’t vote. Seems to me Obama will watch HRC lose and then run in 2012 against one term McCain’s VP yet to be chosen. (I suggest Senator Isackson from GA, But that’s two senators so maybe not. Fla gov. more likely.) And, the dems cannot win without Obama’s voting block. The price of popcorn would drop suddenly if this
drama closed or if we forgot that stupid ethanol idea.
Hello President McCain, sir.
