Their behavior throughout the primaries was reprehensible and inexcusable!<BR/><BR/>And I hope, as time goes by, that Barack won't "need" to add Hillary to the ticket to help him win. <BR/><BR/>But he's gonna need a good number of her supporters to vote for him_and I'm thinking, why run the risk of angering many of them, again, by offering it to another woman when he has several "good" male choices to consider?!<BR/><BR/>Didn't mean to "test" ya IA_just thinking out loud...and now I'm done_lol! <BR/><BR/>BTW: IMO, Bill Clinton IS the "Karl Rove" of the Democratic party.Truthizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01955523196532537947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21083673.post-22292095122609178382008-06-27T13:30:00.000-07:002008-06-27T13:30:00.000-07:00Truthiz,I don't like to think of this site as a "B...Truthiz,<BR/><BR/>I don't like to think of this site as a "Black" site... I like to maintain a broader perspective here. And I can't kick anyone out for an opinion. <BR/><BR/>That being said... I will walk you to the door (j/k j/k). :)<BR/><BR/>I enjoy your participation in the comments area. <BR/><BR/>But mentioning Hillary really tests me. After her reign of psychological terrorism over the past 6 months, there is really no turning back for the way I feel about that woman. She even provided joy to Karl Rove with her antics.Brian https://www.blogger.com/profile/07872444863142531165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21083673.post-54153868428983141112008-06-27T13:21:00.000-07:002008-06-27T13:21:00.000-07:00Schweitzer is one that I had not listed before. I ...Schweitzer is one that I had not listed before. I don't know how much he would bring to the ticket.<BR/><BR/>I think Edwards or Richardson would make pretty good choices. I don't think the fact that Richardson is Hispanic would necessarily hurt, although it might not help all that much in the South with working class white voters. If voters are willing to support Obama, then they shouldn't have trouble with Richardson. I'd be a little concerned about Edwards's limited government experience.<BR/><BR/>I'm surprised that Ed Rendell is anywhere in your vocabulary :). Under no circumstances should he be under consideration. <BR/><BR/>And Hagel would definitely shake things up. But I don't think he would take the job. There would probably be issues of compatibility.<BR/><BR/>Former Sen. Nunn is apparently getting a lot of scrutiny. He would make a pretty good choice. Obama will more than likely choose someone who is very seasoned, to balance his ticket. If he doesn't, the Republicans will pounce. It would give McCain an opening. The only candidate who might be able to overcome that is Edwards...just by his pure grit.Brian https://www.blogger.com/profile/07872444863142531165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21083673.post-20062043717806355922008-06-27T13:05:00.000-07:002008-06-27T13:05:00.000-07:00I am totally feeling Jim Webb.He can appeal to the...I am totally feeling Jim Webb.<BR/>He can appeal to the sensibilities of the "everyman" and those blue-collar democrats that were there for Hillary. I also think that he would "eat any republican" attack that comes Obama's way. Besides, he had great military credentials that should assuage any body's doubts about foreign policy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21083673.post-32185514855130707142008-06-27T12:21:00.001-07:002008-06-27T12:21:00.001-07:00Ooops, I meant to say "your" take.Ooops, I meant to say "your" take.Truthizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01955523196532537947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21083673.post-79572326114386190892008-06-27T12:21:00.000-07:002008-06-27T12:21:00.000-07:00I think you’re take on the Pros-vs-Cons of the pos...I think you’re take on the Pros-vs-Cons of the possible VP candidates you’ve listed are “spot on!”<BR/> <BR/>And let me just say_(at the risk getting “the boot” from this site and any other Black site I frequent_lol)_like her or dislike her....<BR/><BR/>IF Barack is going to choose a woman for his VP, why not offer it to the woman who’s actually earned it, meaning Hillary Clinton?<BR/><BR/>The most obvious reason is BILL!<BR/><BR/>Which is why I don’t think he’ll choose a woman...but time will tell.<BR/><BR/>Jim Webb is still my first choice for VP and I still like Joe Biden for Secretary of State.Truthizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01955523196532537947noreply@blogger.com
