Run, Sen. McKeating...er McCain, run....
While McCain was being tortured in a Vietnamese prison camp, Kerry was throwing his support behind the anti-war effort, which made it easier for McCain's captors to gain the advantage.
"My prediction of 2 months ago still stands. McCain will be Kerry's VP."
youre gonna look like a fool
McCain has never been a traitor
A standard tactic? Who else used it? McCain isn't perceived as a centrist at all, merely an "independent".
I don't know. My general memory from past presidential campaigns is that people connected with the campaigns usually leak (or openly mention) the names of lots of popular (to somebody) politicians as possible VP's, even politicians it is obvious won't be picked. Usually they, especially the Democrats, will have it understood that they are seriously considering one black and one woman. Since I can't name names, I guess my memory can be regarded as dubious.
This is GREAT news!
It reflects the hopelessness felt by the Kerry camp.
It means:
1. Kerry can't find a VP, who would add more votes than they would subtract (including Hillary).
2. Kerry doesn't believe he has what it takes to win on his own volition.
ROTFLOL!
I think it's hysterical that while the democrats are so busy bashing Bush, the military, and all the republicans ...... IT TAKES A REPUBLICAN TO MAKE KERRY A VIABLE CANDIDATE.
The modern-day Democrats are such a bunch of losers that Kerry doesn't even want to take one of them as his running mate.
It's even greater news, were it true. Get rid of a RINO, replace him in conservative AZ with a pro-borders, true conservative (Hayworth? Flake?) while seeing McCrazy and his Manchurian ego go up in flames with Ketchup boy.
That all being said, I'm with the group that says it will never happen.
