What If Everyone Worked Together?
Like what if you coordinated, Bill Clinton, HIllary, Biden, Kerry, McCaskill, Webb, Clark, Richardson and Gore to all be out campaigning a few days a week for Obama???

I think we have the resources (or could raise them), the scheduling software is pretty good these days.


Why shouldn't there be multiple rallies everyday around the country only a few of which are Obama led?


You could tie it to the down ticket races too, and help those folks out.


This is doable, so will we see anything like it? And if not, why??? It would help everyone.

1. Yes... They should all go skydiving together, holding an "Obama 2008" banner.

Sure, they won't. But it would look really cool.

3. But Seriously Why Wouldn't They Do This?
I mean what's the down side? They're all politicians and love crowds and talking to people.

It's a head scratcher for me. Like don't the campaigns want it? Is it just clash of egos?

I've seen Obama, but I've never had a chance to see Richardson (except driving past at 80 mph in a motorcade).

I think it would just lend more excitement.

5. They Do This Sort of Stuff for Down Ticket Guys/Gals In Their Own States...Why Stop
Even that Oregon GOP guy is talking up Obama...if a GOP guy wants to be part of this, I have to imagine most every Dem running for office would love such an organized effort.

Oh, and I think you're just joking, but just to clear up in case there was confusion, I'm not talking about having them all go out and campaign together...just in an organized manner.

6. You know, you're all over the place:
You've criticize Kerry as a poor surrogate. Praised and criticized Hillary. You've been here less than a day and have nearly 70 posts.

Amazingly frantic.

7. And You're Meeting Ignore I Can Smell Someone Picking a Fight
You didn't ask, but the way you stated it sort of sounds like I'm contradicting myself.

I'm not a fan of Hillary but think she's a good surrogate (or at least could be).

I am a fan of Kerry, but don't think he did well MTP and generally don't think he's as effective as others do.

Have a nice life.

9. Well I hope that's not too rude, but I'm here to have fun not get fights
Maybe the guy or gal didn't even mean anything by it, but that's the nice thing about ignore and all the people online. You pick and choose. I'm sure he or she will probably ignore me and everyone will be happier in the end. :)
