Who will Rudy pick to be his running mate next year?
Edited on Thu Feb-15-07 10:07 PM by Gabi Hayes
not that I'm getting ahead of things, or anything

just want to be the first one to bring it up (far as I can tell, anyway)

when will the M$M start talking about it?

and, how SICK are you off wall to wall 08 election coverage?

this is the WORST, by far.

when will they start on 2012?

next month?



Cowabunga!

6. I think your are right. If they believe G can beat Hillary they
fundies will vote for him. For them she is Satan in a dress.

13. No, not Robertson. A lot of the leaders would back Giuliani
or the Marquis de Sade, for that matter, but I think the rank & file might be kinda turned off--enough to cost them the election, anyway. And probly the primary.

19. The Righteous Wing aren't so particular when it's one of their
guys. Remember after Orrin Hatch et al went after Clinton because he was immoral, he turned around and suggested that an ammendment should be made to the Constitution so that Arnold Schwarzenegger could run for President. I mean the ASSnold makes Clinton look like a choirboy.

29. The Far Righteous leadership is of course a bunch of
psychopathic Elmer Gantry types. Their followers can sometimes be turned off when their noses get shoved into the dogpoop.

9. ha ha ha Haley Barbour!
I'd love to see that

or how bout that nutjob judge who put the 10 commandments in his courthouse?

wishful thinking, I know, but when Rudy gets it, he's going to have to go VERY conservative with his running mate

I'd love to see Brownback, but that would be going against my earlier judgment

it won't be Romney, cause the trogs don't even consider him a CHRISTIAN...that's so funny

7. Jack Daniels...
...on the rocks. That's cause Guilandrews (love that new monicker) won't make it to the convention. If his temper doesn't do him in before the primaries, the "social conservatives" in South Carolina and across the south & west will.

10. How about that maniacal nutcase from Cincinnati -- Mean Jean Schmidt?
A choice of Schmidt as veep would make a horrifying GOP ticket more than twice as repellent.

Giuliani-Schmidt.

Yuck.

But I don't think Rudy is likely to win the nomination anyway.

25. I believe he'll appoint Dick Cheney to head up a search committee
And - guess what - same result as last time Cheney searched for a Veep!

30. well...guliani/romney is clumsy to say- romney/guliani flows a lot better...
Edited on Thu Feb-15-07 10:57 PM by QuestionAll
i'm still thinking that it could be guliani/mccain.

name recognition means a lot.

and yes- i'm VERY SICK of the coverage...the first primary is still a year away, for christ's sake.
