Don't worry; the Paulians will write him in for prez.

Since when is Joe Lieberman a Republican? I know he's not Democrat anymore, but as far as I'm aware, he is not a Republican either.

re: #7 rightwinger3

He hasn't pulled out of the Presidential race yet.

Yes he did, at the TX state GOP convention. Last week.

re: #9 Ward Cleaver

Don't worry; the Paulians will write him in for prez.

I wrote in "Winnie the Pooh" for the dims on that poll!

Dems: Bill Richardson
Reps: Michael Steel

(That's a longshot on the Republican side).

I forgot to vote for a democrat.

/ old habits

I went with Mark Warner for the D and Palin for the R. Geography and demographics - and both have executive level experience.

re: #10 Jito463

You don't have to be a member of the party to be a nominee. Hagel (supposedly a Republican) wants to be Obama's VP.

I thought I was going waaaay dark horse by voting for Kathleen Sebelius, but she's at the top. Whouda thunk it?

re: #10 Jito463

Since when is Joe Lieberman a Republican? I know he's not Democrat anymore, but as far as I'm aware, he is not a Republican either.

He would never be considered on the Democrat ticket, but since McCain is the Republican candidate there is a chance he would be considered as his running mate.

Jim Webb (D)

Mitt Romney (R)

That's my pick, not necessarily my choice though.

Interesting poll of the day:

President Bush Job Approval
RCP Average: Spread -36.4%
* Approve
* 29.8%
* Disapprove
* 66.2%

Poll Details >
Congressional Job Approval
RCP Average: Spread -58.0%
* Approve
* 17.5%
* Disapprove
* 75.5%

However bad Bush has done, Congress has surpassed him as an indicator of bad job performance.

re: #11 Ward Cleaver

Yes he did, at the TX state GOP convention. Last week.

re: #18 rightwinger3

I picked Lieberman for McCain's Veep. Yeah its a longshot.

Right now, one of the candidates (Hussein O i mean) does not deserve to be where he is. He is not qualified to run a convenience store, let alone the most powerful nation in history. Affirmative Action sucks, IMO.

I went with Nunn and Crist.

Unbelievably cocky. And check out the comments. You know, the liberals keep talking about how the Republicans are going to use race, race, race to beat Obama... the Republicans are so racist, they'll never vote for a black man, racist republicans, KKK republicans, race race race...

And I have NEVER heard or read a Republican speaker or writer EVER mentioning Obama's race, not ONCE! They talk about his issues, his lack of identity, his crazy church, his foolish stands on issues... but the only ones making race an issue are these libs.

Romney for the GOP. And Bill Richardson for the RATS since it will be easier for GOP to beat Obama/Richardson ticket. That'll be a very dumb ticket.

I think that Obama is going to have to take some Muslima chick in a scarf named Fatima. The Obama must atone for his shameful treatment of ROP women at his Dearborn Rally.
He will just have to make sure that she does not conclude stump speeches with "Death to America!"
Hey he hasn't slipped yet

Initially, they didn't have Romney up, so I voted "other," and then voted for Romney when he was added; seems like you can vote multiple times, which makes this one especially lame as a popularity indicator.

I WISH Obama would pick Mark Warner (VA). It would keep him out of the Senate. (He's a shoo-in for it, they say.)

Good point, but on the other hand, it'd make sure Obama hasn't got a shot at the White House.

re: #59 Ward Cleaver

I thought the exact same thing. WEIRD.

I related to the chick sticking the knitting needle (don't know if thats what it was) in her neck. I feel like doing that every time Obama speaks.

Speaking of ducks,.......gotta go get the chicken outa the oven and throw it to the little wolves.

re: #93 bellamags

Funny - I have to change the channel whenever he speaks and I say UGH!

I think Silky Pony Hair would make a great veep for Obama, and ensure a Republican win. Joe Lieberman might help crossover votes for McCain. Don't really know who else would help this ticket - Romney? Rice?

The entitlement of almost all politicians is sickening. They have forgotten who hires them and for what purpose. About Hillary`s one month vacation to prepare for the terrible, awful job the people of New York hired her for:

It is a transition from the possibility of the most powerful job in the world to the reality of a junior senatorship among 99 others in a chamber dominated by overweening egos that have already indicated they will make no special provision for her to ascend quickly to a leadership role.

Boo hoo. I think taking a month off from congress to recuperate from the 18 months you just took off should be a scandal.

re: #100 bellamags

Yes I saw the previews when I went to see Iron Man. It sure sums up what the post election week will look like doesn't it?

#96, moreover, Romney would allow McCain to focus on slaying Obama in the foreign policy realm, since econ is not his forte.

I picked Romney there w/ Richardson on VP Democratic side.

But Richardson won't get tapped because he's got alot of baggage.

re: #103 satan sidekick

I don't want to sound conspiratorial, however, I wonder if the movie will get bad reviews and/or get "banned" for some reason. If it seems to make a reference to the Obamessiah, no telling what will happen.

BTW - It SURE doesn't represent any conservative feelings toward McCain.

Choices--

R -- Rudy (I can still hope, can't I?)
D -- Hilldebeast. On her part, I think she'll suck it up and agree on a VP slot (for now) and he knows she will bring back a lot of those defecting lib votes.
