2. Something involving Bachmann
In right wing circles she passes as a genius (compared to Palin).

5. nope to all answers so far. he hasn't mentioned any of them yet.
he just talked her up, as I typed the subject

he's impressed with her!

remember, he was a top (if not the chief) adviser to Dan Quayle

3. he actually just said something to the effect that the republicans have better answers
to the current economic crisis, basing it on the great crop of republican GOVERNORS!!!!

he named names, including all the most egregious (except Kasich)

43. we're so screwed, no matter what, that we might as well have some fun before
the ship goes all the way under

that 08 campaign was very stressful, and not enjoyable til the very end, especially when the idiots ate up Palin's egregious convention speech. at that point, I thought the media was just going to let her say anything, and let her get away without answering any questions at all

if they'd been able to keep her away from the inkstained wretches, McC very well may have won

can you imagine what things would be like, bad as they are now?

here's what goes through my mind:

I didn't have really high expectations, but this is worse than I imagined. Still, he nominally fights some of the important liberal battles. To have the whole enchilada handed to Repukes on a silver platter is horrifying.

one caller, however, nailed him on the Bush tax cuts, and how insane it is for the pugs to be demanded fiscal responsibility when there's ZERO chance of achieving this with the clearly documented shortfall in fed receipts this will cause

his answer (which I didn't get a lot of, cause I was typing) was pure supply side BS

24. Jeb is my personal dark horsey, but, sadly, no.
pugs rely as much on the total lack of attention span of the voting public/news consumers, so I can't rule him out, but I just don't see people forgetting what his lesser sibling did to us.

that said, he did 'win' re-election, so anything is possible

59. Don't think I'd be able to guess...
I gather Republicans want some new blood, so I am guessing it's gotta be combo of Perry, Rubio, Jindal, Christie, Ryan.

Rubio makes the best sense as a VP running mate in my opinion, but I guess it could be any of them.

Maybe it's Perry/Christie?

I guess since he is talking dream ticket it doesn't have to be realistic, so maybe Christie/Rubio?

While it's certainly nice to win, I am not so sure I want to understand the mind of a twisted neo-con like Kristol. Makes me think of that Nietzsche line:

"Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you."

107. Yes. That's the dream ticket he's been talking about for months. He can't seem to get anyone to
agree with him that it would be a great ticket for the GOP.

It would be an easy ticket for President Obama to run against, though. :)

108. certainly, at this point, Ryan's name is about as popular as the chimp's, but
if the economy keeps dumpster diving, who knows what'll happen?

that said, if the dems knew how to play the game like the pugs, Ryan would have less chance than Dukakis after he poked his head outta the tank with Willie Horton on his shoulders

He was specifically calling for a particular ticket a few months ago, according to Google. My guess is that he hasn't changed his mind (though I could be wrong).

Rubio has to be one of them. He has been praising him to high heaven lately.

77. I didn't name them & they aren't easy to guess. But he has been promoting them for months.
I didn't remember reading about them earlier till I googled them -- that's how forgettable the ticket is.

80. if it's who I heard today, I'd welcome that ticket with arms wide open.
it's not going to happen, though. not in this dimension

just shows how completely out of touch he is

of course, name ANY pair, and they're just as ridiculous

thing is, ANY of them could win, if the economy is bad enough (as long as they don't go completely off the deep end, which I hope they do)

remember; #41 had approval ratings in the 80s/90s right after Gulf War I

78. I heard him on Dennis Miller a couple of weeks ago
He was really talking up Paul Ryan and saying that he should be able to go head-to-head with President Obama over Ryancare.

He also seems to really like Christie, so I'm going to go with Ryan/Christie???? :shrug:
