J. C. Watts is the one that I wish were on the Republican ticket. He’s more articulate than Barry Uh-Uh-Uh Obama, hands down.
...But somehow I doubt that Michelle would be quit so proud of her country...

He lost all credibilty when he said he might vote for Obama.

Skin color trumps all...

He’s a fraud.

I met JC when I lived in OKC in the 1990’ and he frequently speaks on issues in this plain spoken, common sense way.

Always making a point and doing it in a way everyone understands.

So why the hell is he supporting BHO?

It drives me crazy to see soeone I used to respect sell our country down the river because of race!

I heard many back then call him a RINO, and I defended him as a centerist, not a NEOCON.

I guess he really is a RINO.

Watts is my choice for veep by a big margin. Aside from everything else you could say about him, wishbone quarterback was the ultimate high pressure job ever created in the world and Watts was as good as it got. That was the only situation I ever saw in sports in which an amateur version of a sport outgrew the pro version. If Switzer or Bear Bryant had ever coached a college all-star team against a superbowl winner using that offense and somebody like Watts or Richard Todd as quarterback, the NFL could easily have been seriously embarassed.

Is J.C. Watts still going to vote for the Obomination?

Till I know he isn't and isn't pushing black quotas, then I'll pay attention to him. Till then, he's just another token black the Republicans tried to use. Deep down he's a Demoncrat.

Can he in good conscience accept the VP since he is voting for BHO?

If Canada drills the Artic Circle, why can’t we?
If you like $4/gal, Thank Congress. If you want $10, Vote Obama.

Sorry, J.C. Even though I may agree with you on this issue, it’s kind of hard to concentrate on the article when my back is still in pain from the knife you put there when you announced you might vote for Obama.

It’s the same thing with Newt Gingrich and his selling out on AGW and kissing Pelosi’s ass (almost literally).

'Might' is not necessarily 'will'. I hope he's not serious; perhaps it's just a ruse to light a fire under the GOP @$$e$ (time to get a real campaign going!)

Is Mr Watts going to suggest separate energy polices? One for blacks and one for whites?

After J.C. Watts indicated that he is voting for Barack Hussein Osama-Obama, I don’t give a crap about what he has to say.

HE’S A POLITICAL WHORE!!!

Did he say he “would” vote for Obama, or he “might” vote for Obama? Huge difference, IMHO.
