22. If Kerry picks Bayh, I'm voting third party
Edited on Mon Feb-16-04 11:01 PM by sleipnir
That will be the final straw. He might as well have Miller or Lieberman on his ticket. I lived for four years in Indiana, and I was not proud of Bayh's record then, and my opinion of him hasn't changed. He and Kerry both lack charisma and I fear they fare as well as Gore/Lieberman.

No offense, Jeter, but you're pick of Bayh is really far off. While I understand your reasoning and respect your views, I really don't think anyone outside of DU and the like see him as a viable candidate. He has little to no name recognition or appeal.

I'm not a Kerry fan by any stretch of the imagination, but his VP selection will be critical for me. It will either bring me closer to his camp (and I might even give him some cash!) or push me over the edge to Third Party/Write-In.
