This ticket is more REAL than any in modern history
Kennedy was great - but Johnson?

Johnson headed the ticket with a fiery Humphrey.

Humphrey - Muskie?

McGovern - Shriver? (Shriver was a great guy, but not very "real" or exciting.)

Carter-Mondale? (Mondale took the "real" out of this ticket - as much as I love him.)

Mondale-Ferraro? Zippo chemistry.

Dukakis-Bentsen? Okay, that one never happened, right? (Despite Bentsen's great line in the debate.)

Clinton-Gore. OK, this was a great ticket. But Gore was very wooden and not very "real." (More real today than he was in office.)

Gore-Lieberman (Enough said.)

Kerry-Edwards (Kerry - another great guy, but came across rather regal.)

Obama-Biden - The most REAL ticket in memory!
It's a winner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

These guys will make a connection. What do you think?

1. Kerry IS regal. And he still legislates the RIGHT way. Can't we have both?

4. I was defending the use of the word regal. It sounded tainted like elite or liberal.
We need a regal president. We don't need another idiot son one.

3. Both Barack and Joe have earned everything they have in life
and done it without selling their souls. They are family men in the best sense and are clearly madly in love with their wives.

Barack and Joe really do represent the American dream and the Pukes hate that with a passion.
