They would run on the theme Unifying America. They have done a lot of recent traveling around the country together and agree on quite a few issues. I think America is stupid enough to buy it..:shrug:

1. Never happen. You don't give Hillary too much credit do you?
She is a very smart woman.

2. I'm not sure you do.
She's very calculating and intelligent. If she saw this as a ticket to the White House, you don't think she'd take it?

3. I agree
Her recent campaigning techniques has me wondering. I remember people talking about a Kerry/McCain ticket in '04. McCain may prove to be a better democrat than Lieberman.

6. I don't think she would. McCain is an evil little bastard who kisses the
very man who smeared his child. He can't be trusted...she needs a partner she can trust or manipulate. He ain't the one.

Clinton/Clark (best ticket with military man on deck)

9. I see that a little differently than you do.
I see the fact that McCain would do that as that he has so much loyalty that he'd even drop that low to help the "team". But I do agree she'd need someone she could manipulate and he's probably not the guy for that.

I don't think any Clinton Democratic only ticket would be a good idea, but I do like Clark in the VP slot.

11. I think a Clinton/Clark ticket would be best for Hillary
to win. People like Clark (except wing-nuts who hate everyone to the left of Ronald Reagan) and his military backround helps a woman running, as she will be painted as weak just because she's a woman.

12. Not to mention, McCain made some joke one time about how
ugly Chelsea Clinton was at a speech. He's a world class asshole and Hillary knows it.

5. Do people just lay awake at night and think this stuff up?
If you think Americans are that stupid than you have no confidence in the Democratic party whatsoever

7. No, I don't see it....
I'm still banking on a Clinton/Clark ticket if she gets the nomination.

8. It's been suggested by a lot of conservatives
that a McCain/Lieberman would be a great ticket, to bring the nation together.

10. Republicans hate McCain and everyone hates Hillary
not much of a unification ticket.
