Who will be Hillary's VP choice?

[jcrew2001]

I think the only reasonable option in the article is Bayh. But he seemed to miss a lot of more serious candidates from the Senate.

For instance, what about Rockefeller, sure he is up for re-election, but he could Finance the entire ticket like Bloomberg.

1. I think Clark

gave her an endorsement for a reason and it would be a good ticket.

[Gregorian]

12. I wonder why he wasn't included in the article. Huh.

And we see him openly talking about his agreement with her position on Iran. They seem to be pairing up, to me at least.

[Colobo]

2. The premise of your question is wrong.

[jcrew2001]

19. I just think its time for a Rockefeller in the white house

because after his brother was eaten by cannibals, he deserves it.

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

23. No kidding.

This kind of BS does a disservice to all the candidates. Including Sen. Clinton. MKJ

[superkia]

54. It sounds like a question asked on Fox news or one of the other MSM shows.

If you say it enough, some jackass will start to believe it is already fact.

[toddaa]

3. Dennis Kucinich

Out of spite.

[CoffeeCat]

4. She should pick a running mate who has...

...similar political beliefs and shares her philosophy on the war in Iraq
and also is in sync with her concerns about going to war with Iran.

How about Lieberman?

[opihimoimoi]

5. The best List has to include Edwards, do something for GORE,( new Dept ?)

and Obama....

[Moloch]

6. I think it will be John Edwards...

Clark as Sec of Defense..

[emilyg]

7. Thanks. Interesting read.

[jcrew2001]

24. most of his suggestions were poor choices

nt

[jefferson_dem]

8. Why would the returning junior senator from NY get to pick Obama's VP?

Besides, Bayh is a bore.

[jcrew2001]

17. It should be Bye/Clinton

get it - bye bye clinton!

[Catherine Vincent]

9. She'd have to win the nomination first. n/t

[illinoisprogressive]

10. Eric Prince. The guy who owns Blackwater

[Mojorabbit]

25. !

:spray:
LOL, heads would explode here

[zulchzulu]

11. VP at Vinod Gupta's outsourcing office she is part of?

Once she retires from politics in 2008, she'll probably get divorced...

[David Dunham]

13. Richardson or Bayh

[jcrew2001]

16. Richardson is too clownish - he comes off as a jokester

in the interviews i've seen. i like him, but he's not stiff enough to be president.

[movonne]

14. Lieberman....

[Ken Burch]

27. Can she put a non-Democrat on the ticket?

Don't we have rules about that?

[Colobo]

15. Who will? Who can see the future here?

[jefferson_dem]

18. How 'bout a unity ticket?

...supposing she steals...er...wins the election.

--->

[hughee99]

38. Unity ticket... Hillary and Jeb Bush. n/t

[CK_John]

20. Gov K Sebelius hopefully is at the top of her list. n/t

[jcrew2001]

22. So that we can win the White Male vote?

nt

[CK_John]

32. Afraid of women in office, are we? Is this part of your anti spouse rant.

[Bucky]

49. Congratulations. I didn't think you could top the previous gratuitous, fact-free cheap shot

But you rose to the occasion. You have my admiration.

[jcrew2001]

51. Only women with actual leadership experience, not fake experience

nt

[jcrew2001]

21. Clinton/Gore - again?

that would be crazy if Al or Tipper joined the ticket.

Won't Tipper be a great VP - after all she was Co-vice-president!!!!

[ruggerson]

26. It's going to be a governor

probably from the South

[jcrew2001]

29. because why?

the south will never vote for her - maybe beebee.

[Jackpine Radical]

28. Lieberman!! (nt)

[LibertyorDeath]

30. Murdoch

Hillary Clinton and Rupert Murdoch.

[regnaD kciN]

31. Lieberman, obviously...

...because, having run to the right of all other Democratic candidates in the primaries, she still will feel the need to "move to the center," giving us a taste of what her presidency will be like. :eyes:

(If not Lieberman, another DLCer like Evan Bayh.)

[Smarmie Doofus]

33. Bayh's got the charisma of a cold mashed potato sandwich.

>>>What Bayh does bring is a low-key centrism on budgetary matters; a deep, and rather hawkish, knowledge of foreign policy; and an utter absence of excitement>>>

No one that boring can, or should, be elected to *anything*.

Plus Indiana will vote GOP regardless. She will need help in the South and the West.

How 'bout Hagel? I know he's RW but he's interesting and educable... so it would seem... on certain issues.


Plus it will throw the forces of darkness into disarray.

[OHdem10]

34. Bayh comes across as the ULTIMATE YUPPIE.

Besides that look at his voting recor. The GOP
cannot have a better voting partner.

He may sell in Indianna--(because of his father)
but I question the rest of the Heartland.

[MannyGoldstein]

35. VP Choice For What? Fox "News"?

I dunno - Hannity might be OK. Or Harold Ford. Same diff.

[sampsonblk]

36. Clark, I hope

He's a great choice and a great man.

[Indenturedebtor]

37. Hmmmm

I know! Well erm I kinda know. Who is heading Halliburton nowadays? :eyes:

[silverojo]

39. It SHOULD be Edwards

But she'd never pick him. The Clintons aren't too fond of giving a damn about the poor, what with their "welfare de-form" and all. :mad:

[Mojambo]

40. Bayh's the favorite. Clark could sneak in there.

But I'd put my money of Bayh.

Clinton/Bayh 2008

Don't mind the noise, it's just the sound of every corporate CEO in the country having a simultaneous orgasm.

[Gman]

41. It will be Richardson

He's not seriously pushing to be president. He's running hard for VP. His people will tell you that.

Richardson is the secret strategy to turn out the Hispanics for Democrats next year.

[Totally Committed]

42. If it isn't Clark, he traded his good name and a lot of our trust for NADA.

If he IS her VP, I might, over time, come to understand his capitulation to the Dark Side. But, if he isn't, his endorsement of this war candidate, and his flip-flop defense of her positions will be EXACTLY the coup de gras kick in the teeth this feels like now.

I will NEVER trust another political figure again. NOT EVER. Not on any single issue. Not on anything important. Wes was the last of a long line of disappointments for me, capping off a lifetime of disappointments in those I trusted in this Party.

I loved that guy. And, I feel totally screwed now. So, I hope he IS her VP, because he lost a lot when he decided to support her this way.

TC

[LWolf]

43. Lieberman. n/t

[GreenTea]

44. The old lady hasn't received a single vote....you watch far too much TV....

The TV news will tell you who to vote for....the MSM want Hillary so all the rest should just quit and go home....even though not a single vote has been cast!

[Bucky]

47. "The old lady"? Are you really calling her that?

Damn, that's lame.

[sueh]

45. Mark Penn.

[Sparkly]

46. As usual, no mention of Clark.

:eyes:

[Bucky]

48. I'm a Clarkie myself, but I think we should have the perspective to know we'er a niche group

Clark adds nothing you don't get from Webb, just as Salazar adds nothing you don't get from Richardson. It was a silly spacefiller of an article. Fineman more or less acknowledged that in his last sentence.

[BelgianMadCow]

50. I think the original post is typical for someone without a profile

clearly an attempt at division

[DemocratSinceBirth]

52. Yeah

I'm reminded of that scene in "The Untouchables" when Al Capone discovers the "traitor" in their midst...

[sniffa]

53. no one

as she won't be the nominee.
