Lee Mercer should NOT be Obama's VP. Please rec if you agree!
Edited on Fri May-23-08 12:35 PM by Gman
Mercer has ran a divisive, combative campaign that is based entirely in politics and not on reality.

His inclusion on the ticket would:

* ignite conservatives like nothing else
* continue the discussion of "why isn't obama qualified to be president" and would make Obama and Mercer look like flip floppers
* represent the exact opposite of everything that obama stands for...being strong-armed due to political pressure to have his biggest enemy on the ticket

I'm sure there's a million other reasons that Mercer should not be on the ticket. He has run a racially charged, despicable campaign and I am still flabbergasted that he is still in the race. It's very rare to witness a candidate who is willing to embarrass themselves in this way. In my mind, Mercer has irrevocably damaged his reputation during this race, and he must not be our VP.

3. Obama would be lucky to be Mercer's VP.
Mercer's too good to stoop to be either Obama or Clinton's VP.

6. I think you waited too late to post this. The decision has already
been made, I've been told by a top campaign operative who does not want to be named, and it's going to be an Obama/Mercer ticket, for sure.
