I think the good General has learned his lesson. I doubt there is a truck full 'o money large enough.Convince Colin Powell, and you may have a winner...
He's already sold his soul, he may as well make a buck off it.I think the good General has learned his lesson. I doubt there is a truck full 'o money large enough.
What r464 said...What about that she is a regular church-goer, and that she has a massive appeal to the 20ish% of people who still support Bush policy?
Rarer than hen's teeth.No way. An unmarried black woman with no children
Powell's already an advisor to McCain, so it's possible.I think the good General has learned his lesson. I doubt there is a truck full 'o money large enough.
How many people really know what she does? Other than be Bush's token black personCondi has the highest approval rating of the current crop, always has.
She's been as high as 70% approval in some polls and even now is actually 50/50 (46%/46% approval/disapproval) in the latest polls.
she could kick your ass in a piano recital and a football pool.How many people really know what she does? Other than be Bush's token black person
If a woman can have a d!ck, she is.I don't think it would fly because with Condi as VP, if McCain kicks the bucket mid-term, the country is run by a black woman.
I think she's a woman, right?
you don't want to see her inner round-the-way chick. she'll be leaving fake nails in haters' grillsI've no doubt she's a smart cookie, but she's if she's still as spineless and star-struck as she was in 00/01, she'll get eaten alive in a campaign.
As opposed to a black guy who gives nice speeches but hasn't done much of anything else?I don't think it would fly because with Condi as VP, if McCain kicks the bucket mid-term, the country is run by a black woman.
not defending obama, but our system is made such that any person who qualifies (35, citizen, has not served > 1 term, born to a white woman, etc.) & is properly elected should be able to execute the position adequately. just b/c i disagree w/ obama 90% of the time, i don't equate conservatism to being habanero-dry-rub mule-raped.As opposed to a black guy who gives nice speeches but hasn't done much of anything else?
Fvcked no matter who wins.
I'm looking forward to bitching about someone other than GWB.of course, i reserve the right to bitch about it in 11 months.
Imagine the fun you could have if you were a history teacher.I'm looking forward to bitching about someone other than GWB.
Lets get down and dirty. If McCain really wants to have it allto refurbish his maverick image without having to flip-flop on the panderings that have tarnished it; to galvanize the attention of the press, the nation, and the world; to make a bold play for the center without seriously alienating the basethen he can avail himself of a highly interesting option: Condoleezza Rice.
To deal first with the obvious: Rice may be only the second woman and the second African-American to be Secretary of State, but she is indisputably the highest-ranking black female official ever to have served in any branch of the United States government. Her nomination to a constitutional executive office would cost McCain the votes of his partys hardened racists and incorrigible misogynists. They are surely fewer in number, though, than the people who would like to participate in breaking the glass ceiling of race or gender but, given the choice, would rather do so in a more timid way, and/or without abandoning their party. And with Rice on the ticket the Republicans could attack Clinton or Obama with far less restraint.
too oldI think Colin Powell would make a good VP for either side...
Why do you think this? "The people" like her! Look at the polls. FFS Bush didn't have anything to offer either and look what happened to him.She just doesn't bring McCain anything in the way of votes so what's the point?
I think that that would be blatant political pandering, would look awful, and would probably work incredibly well. After his "every vote in FL should count" bullsh!t about the democratic primary I can't stand him, but then again I wasn't planning on voting for McCain anyway (unless Hildog steals the nomination somehow). The only issue here would be it could kill McCain's "change" mantra, as it's remarkably similar to Rovian tactics used by the current administration.I'd think Charlie Crist, Florida governor make more sense. Crist ran away with the governor election in Florida, a state that McCain needs to win. Especially with Ohio looking to be a potential loss for the GOP. Crist pretty much secured Florida for McCain in the primaries.
Is that a white dude in black face?Louisian gov, Bobby Jindal, as McCain's running mate?
Dont be surprised.
he's from the other black minority..Is that a white dude in black face?
<edit> Or does he have the opposite problem Michael Jackson has?
