(23,558 posts)But, I guess Bernie isn't a dem so that might not work. Yeah I'd vote for Warren Franken
hootinholler
(26,449 posts)But I think Warren Franken would lock up 16 years, plus Franken would be a fun VP.

(34,589 posts)We figured he was a Weld Republican, i.e., would be called a flaming Liberal in most any other part of the country. Once elected Senator, he rocketed to the right (like a lot of pols do these days).

(25,183 posts)But the chances of both of them saying, "Naw" to the brass ring? Almost impossible.

(26,449 posts)Joe is too close to the banksters.
customerserviceguy
(25,183 posts)That last minute fiscal cliff deal was all his, and the gun stuff tells me he's trying hard, too. I suppose that the President owes him more than he owes Hillary, who can manage all on her own to create headlines, even if its for just taking a few sick days.

(472 posts)The Establishment won't allow it. She's too much of a threat in the Senate already.
Sorry for my cynicism, but the genuine real deal politicians get stomped...even by their own party sometimes.
customerserviceguy
(25,183 posts)I really believed that the reich wing banksters would absolutely defeat her, but they didn't reckon on the massive vote against the Repukes a couple of months ago. I have to take comfort in the fact that you still can't buy everything in this country.

(14,628 posts)I wouldn't care if she chose a box of rocks as her running mate, I'd still vote for her!

(64,933 posts)her as a President.
Motown_Johnny
(22,308 posts)just because I think it makes the statement more clearly
Low information voters may not be able to wrap their heads around the man being on the bottom, of the ticket that is.
I was thinking Warren - Napolitano

(146,324 posts)Too much can happen in four years. Revisiting this sometime in 2014 would make sense. Right now, it doesn't.
JCMach1
(27,566 posts)He has done everything to that end... not to build any kind of national following at this time.
One of my favorite Senators, but I don't think it will be 2016.

(42,770 posts)say that? Just don't like her? Curious

SidDithers
(44,228 posts)and Jill Stein should be his VP.
Sid
hootinholler
(26,449 posts)I thought she was running on a 3rd party ticket.
SidDithers
(44,228 posts)then they could be the Franken-Stein ticket.
Sid
hootinholler
(26,449 posts)BTW, that was a long way to go for a very small punchline.
SidDithers
(44,228 posts)Ah well
Sid
TwilightGardener
(46,416 posts)chops. She's got domestic issues covered (at least I'm assuming that will be the case during her Senate years).
Bigmack
(8,020 posts)... any more would be stalking. I'd bear her children.
But...
Clinton will massacre any opposition.
We don't need a contest in 2016. We need a total rout to put the Repubs in their place. They got nobody.
hootinholler
(26,449 posts)That is not what Hillary is. Nor is Biden for that matter.
Bigmack
(8,020 posts)Considering all the vote supression, the electronic voting, the gerrymandering, the total lunacy and lack of reality based thinking in large parts of this country, I think half a loaf is better than none.
What happens if Warren loses to... let's say... Rubio or Christie?
Walk away
(9,494 posts)Every Independent in the country will vote for him against her. I had to block several long time Democrats here because they couldn't shut the fuck up about what a great Governor he is and how much they like him!
Yavin4
(35,445 posts)Look at the career of Hubert Humphrey. Look at all of the tremendous progressive legislation that he has helped get passed in the senate.
A long, tenured senator has more power than you know. In fact, I hope that President Obama returns to the Senate after his second term.
