here are my picks
1.Clark : retired general nuff said 2.Hagel: repub that is against the war could pull in more repubs/conservatives
3. Clinton :Shock value and I want to see if Puma still support Mcsame if she is on the ticket on the downside I hope she does not cause Obama to lose support among his base or galvanize the repubs against the ticket
I have some respect for Chuck Hagel, but his voting record is social conservative, I think Obama would be asking for riot if he put him on the ticket.
I also have said, love to see the PUMA world birfurcate if Obama puts Senator Clinton on the ticket.
My take is, Larry, Susan, Alegre, Texas Darlin would all go ballastic, and call anyone traitors to the PUMA cause if some folks came back and switched from voting for McCain to Obama/Clinton.
would probably get busy trying to prove that Hillary isn't actually a citizen.
I can see the Hillary is a Pod person Diary now
It would probably be painful for her, but I think Alegre would come around. Even TexasDarlin might. Larry and Susan aren't real Democrats anyway.
SoCal will never support a black president. Period.
I don't understand why Dems would want Hagel anywhere near our ticket, with due respect. He's right on exactly one issue, and dead wrong on damn near everything else. His voting record is quite conservative and he just doesn't share our values.
This would be a desperation move, and Obama is on such solid ground that picking a conservative Republican would probably hurt him with Democrats more than it helped with Republicans.
Bravo! Well said. Hagel might be a cabinet pick after Obama's election, but certainly not the veep choice.
