Its been floated around before I am sure, but reuters is saying that McCain's best choice for VP is Former Secretary of State the Retired Gen. Colin Powell.

Personally I have my veiws on the political drama that is to unfold in this years hugely polarizing mess that has become the US baby mama drama world of politics.

I like Colin Powell, always have- are there any others out there with the same kind of spunk?


And who out there is a democrat? I mean to say, who do you guys think they should be looking at for your VP canidate, any clues or are they still just trying to figure out this mess they're in right now?

who would you guys like to see?

or is it to damn early to even start thinking about it?

I think both party's VP choices will be politically to the right of the respective nominee.

yeah I think they kind of have to be dont you?

hell McCains a rep by name only, so definately need someone to bring in or sure up the conservative base for them.


same with the dems tho too, right?
both hillary and obama who ever takes it, are both out there way to the left of center so much so that they run a real risk of alienating a large portion of their base, unionized factory workers. definately need someone on the ticket that will give them a warm fuzzy feel good feeling about the party again.

I agree wholeheartedly~~ Problem is there aren't too many democrats that hang to the right ... Leiberman ..but he's for McCain

You sure wouldn't have to go very far to the right to get to the right of either candidate. I see Powell or perhaps Romney for the Republicans and Marx or Lenin for the Democrats.

Perhaps if Hillary looses tomorrow Ann Colter can convince her to switch parties and she can run as a Republican because she is more conservative than Obama or McCain. I am sure that with the right makeover we could learn to love her. laugh laugh laugh laugh

Ms Rice definately has the smarts. She also has a lot of class, That would work. 8 years of McCain, if we must, with Condi as VP and then 8 years of Condi as the first Woman, first Black President. Also don't over look John Thune, Jr Senator from SD, he is the lad that dumped Daschel. He has a lot of class too.

Don't talk about Hillary losing tomorrow. We want to keep Hillary in the race so she can continue her attacks on Obama. Then, if we are lucky the two of them will implode the Democratic Party.

if only the republicans didnt play by the polical correct playbook we could have burried both of them.

one of these years we're going to get somebody with the wavos to say 'im mad as hell and im not taking your crap anymore' but until that happens we're left with withering lions turn housecats.


in the mean time obama has turned himself not into a good politician but execellent speaker and rockstar- he has NO real experience at all(which is coming out, provided hillary can get a boost by the mccain people crossing lines in texas)

he says he has always been against the war and voted that way when in fact he wasnt in the senate at the time of the vote for the war. he is the chair of a committee that is supposed to be investigating among other things getting out of the war but has not held one single meeting. has no foriegn policy, trade policy, economic policy, soc sec policy, medicare policy, spending policy, matter of fact has put forth no policy agendas at all opting instead to say but i can bring change, change, change.

for the first time in my life im hoping a clinton will do good.

"because she is more conservative than Obama or McCain"

I wouldn't say she is....she is anything that she needs to be to get herself elected.... if she needed to be conservative on Monday morning and liberal Monday afternoon she'd do it....laugh
