Republicans...Democrats....I see very little difference.
Lieberman don’t have to change his party affiliation to be a VP. A lesson in history would remind Americans that in Presidential elections early in our nation, there was no selection of VP. Each candidate ran under his own affiliation. The top vote getter was President. The second vote getter was VP.
We weren’t electing a party. We were electing a leader.
Point taken. Even though that’s not the way it is now.
I would welcome Lieberman’s party change if for no other reason that to tip the balance in the Senate to Republican.
And yes, as the poster following you, Lieberman has a following and can help with the Florida vote. But he wouldn’t need to be a VP candidate to do that. I suspect he’ll campaign in Florida anyway for McCain.
But you have to admit, this is going to be the most interesting presidential campaign in recent memory.
“Each candidate ran under his own affiliation. The top vote getter was President. The second vote getter was VP.”
That sounds like a good approach. Why did it change?
