No links yet but MSNBC is just getting ready to discuss this. Seems Condo-lies-alot had a meeting yesterday with some biggie repukes and now there is specuation that this may have been about the VP slot. Any takers?

31. You're probably correct, but
I just thought that we so many sick of * that anyone connected to him would even be disgusting to moderates. Only the neocons, I was thinking, would like this pair.

4. Please please please please please please...
nominate that woman for veep. The Democratic running mate, if he or she has half a brain, will spend the entire debate asking her what the fuck she was doing on August 6, 2001.

7. She is inherently ineligible for the position...
...you must be human to be considered for the position of VP. :puke: I hope this is one thing that everyone, Clinton AND Obama supporters, can unite around hating Condi.

8. Yep. I called this a while ago.
Downside for Mac is that she's closely tied to junior. Upside is she is female and black and that's supposedly a counter for Hillary and/or Obama.

If he picks her It can be a blessing for us.This will allow Obama to hit Mccain even more as running for the third Bush term.And Imagne a VP debate where Webb or Richardson goes after her on Iraq.

29. I don't see how she counters hillary or obama
blacks aren't going to vote for her. And I don't think female dems are going to vote for mccain because his vp is a woman. You think so?

30. I think it's supposed to be a draw for the Indys who might otherwise shift to Obama or Hillary.
Just an added something something to attempt to sway people on over to Mc Cain. It also might help shore McCain up a little bit with the hardline Reps. At the same time it throws an anchor around his neck, so it's risky. Which I like a lot. :)

14. I've also heard Gov. Steele (first name Mike or Matt?) ventured too.
Not sure where he was from but I saw his picture shown when it was mentioned and I've seen him before. He's black also.

15. A McCain/Rice ticket would be fine
... to run against, no matter who the democratic nominee is. Makes the GOP ticket look more pro-war.

17. Obama would win against that ticket
Clinton would lose unless she somehow convinces Obama to go on her ticket.

18. Well, she does have the qualifications
1. She is dishonest. 2. She is incompetant. 3. She has a poor track record. 3. She likes to sneer. Old Man McCain and the Wicked Witch? Bring em on.

20. They've been trying to get a female to win female voters over. To look more "women friendly."
I had read a while back that the Repubs were trying to find a female to run on the ticket to perhaps draw in a lot of the female indys, moderates and some of the disillusioned Hillary supporters. They hope to make permananet gains with female voters. They want to make it look like they are more supportive of women than the Dem Party - who has been beating up on Hillary.

26. Not progressive women but the swing voters and moderate females.

There might be a tiny bit of the feminist vote.... or feminsts may decide to stay home.

25. No. It's Colin Powell
He wants to repair his reputation. This will be a very dangerous ticket.
