2008 Primaries Thread 3: The Rejecting and Denouncening

obama /webb is v appealing

You mean Cynthia Webb, right? Executive administrative assistant at Exelon Nuclear?

really dont think bloomberg has any cred in flyover states to begin with

no this guy tracer

Giuliani = had cred in flyover states until people saw what a creep he was
Bloomberg = has none right now, could probably gain some but it would take way too long

omg hil didn't lie about bosnia

i mean im not personally that into webbs politics/reagan history but there is undeniable synergy there

Que I know - but I thought it was bad form for this thread to show no results for Ctrl-F "Exelon"

How about Mark Warner? Is it too late for him to ditch his Senate run?

he ditched it, didn't he?

lol maybenot

obama /webb is v appealing

Yeah. Webb = ex-GOP Cabinet Member; defense hawk; son currently serving in Iraq. Good way to shore up Obama's defense/foreign policy credentials.

I'm not sure I like the idea of Webb being one step away from the presidency.

What about McCain's VP pick? Do you guys think he'd really go for Condoleezza Rice?

no fucking way

Rice has no political experience/base and she'd be a liability in terms of her record as SoS.

yeah - so not gonna happen

McCain/Cheney

Will McCain reach to his right to shore up the conservative base or regionally to make himself more attractive to independents in a GE?

Your 2008 Vice Presidential Candidate Speculation Thread

Oops, sorry.

"sniper fire" has consequences

Ban Gallup and his anti-Hillary bias!

yow!

People clearly like lighter green, why couldn't she get the lighter green? It's unfair!

(just trying to guess how this could be explained away by her staff)

keep fightin that good fight, StanM

:-)

i'd expect hill's gallup numbers to dip a little more in the next few days, if the poll numbers of her 7-year low in popularity are accurate at all

knew this was coming

I was wondering... out of the 3 who are left, who has the best weekend/holiday retreat house/Crawford Ranch type thing? Since a president apparently has to spend two thirds of his time there, that could be an important factor in voting too.

where's that pic of Obama in a Speedo?

obama spends every christmas in hawaii, not sure if he owns property here though.

No 'ranch' for a guy who by his own admission has barely finished paying off his student loans.

the Hyde Park White House
the Chappaqua White House
the Camelback Corridor White House

McCain actually has some sort of compound. I don't think the others do, quite.

Yes he has a compound in Sedona. It's like rilly rilly cool and it's totally like bitchin' to have people over for campfires and cookouts, the guys who work for us are sooooooooo nice...

/megan

cindy & meg mccain make me think of SEMI-HOMEMADE with SANDRA LEE; i'm imagining horrific patriotic "tablescapes" at white house state dinners

wau: nearly a quarter of Democrats who hold a negative view of Obama (23%) believe he is a Muslim.

Nearly one-in-ten (9%) of those who heard a lot about Wright still believe that Obama is Muslim.

not a quarter of dems, obv, but a quarter of dems who dislike him

Now that you mention it, Cindy McCain looks A LOT like Sandra Lee. I was wondering who Cindy reminded me of.

Interesting barrage of articles unleashed at Guardian:

Hillary Clinton, who has frequently described herself on the campaign trail as playing a pivotal role in forging a children's health insurance plan, had little to do with crafting the landmark legislation or ushering it through Congress, according to several lawmakers, staffers, and healthcare advocates involved in the issue.

Bill Clinton: NEVER MET THE WOMAN

obama spends every christmas in hawaii

DOES HE PLAY TINO'S BREAKS FOR HOLIDAY CHEER?!?

xp lol

Obama: “If FDR can meet with Stalin and Nixon can meet with Mao and Kennedy can meet with Khrushchev and Reagan can meet with Gorbachev, then the notion that we can’t meet with some half-baked dictator is ridiculous.”

POW

oh snap

ZINGBAMA!

The guy's got oomph.

In a couple of months I'm going to the wedding of the daughter of a former Republican candidate for President. It's at their place in the mountains, a massive, multistory mansion with sauna and jacuzzi. They always call it "the cabin".

lamar alexander?
