Who do you want as Obama surrogates?

[aaroh]

ok obama's current crop of surrogates are lame ducks, they're just not hitting mccain hard enough and sending home the bacon. If I was Obama I'd start off with a new clean slate of surrogates. I'd hire the following attack dogs:

Hillary Clinton
James Carville
Wesley Clark
Joe Biden (hired)
Brian Schweitzer
Al Gore

I'd give them all a new set of talking points every day, assign them to different news networks and unleash those mofos.

1. Carville can sit and spin with his Neocon wife and faux support.

The others...I guess Hillary needs a job.

[aaroh]

4. i don't like carville either

but throw him a freakin bone and he goes off his leash and carves em up.

[YOY]

6. He has laid down with dogs and woken with fleas

That much needs to be considered.

[Thrill]

2. John Kerry

.

3. NOT Hillary or Carville..

Sorry. I know today we're supposed to be fawning all over Hillary, and yes she did a good job last night. But I'm still not convinced that her heart is in it. I'm just not, and I think she'll be more of a distraction/temptation to the media.

And Carville's heart DEFINITELY isn't in it and he's only good at being an attack dog for the Clinton's and nobody else.

5. Carville? No way.

I would use Kucinich.

edit: Kerry, too.

7. What about Cliff Schecter? I wish Obama would put him on his payroll!

Cliff Schecter gives as good as he gets!

[JBoy]

8. Charles Barkley.

He can help get out the vote, too.

[aaroh]

13. u're kidding right?

Charles Barkley isn't the sharpest tool in the shed

[quantass]

9. Kucinich by far...DAMN THAT GUY IS PASSIONATE!

[Egnever]

12. Yes!

Throw some cash the Kuches way and let him run wild!

[livetohike]

16. Another vote for Dennis

We need someone to set some fires - he's so passionate and enthusiastic. Politics should not be a spectator sport. He's great :toast:.

10. james carville?

WTF is wrong with you?

[eshfemme]

11. I love Clark but he's just not very good at attacking-- the MSM hate him too.

Carville is obviously going the Howard Wolfson route and is this close to shilling for Fox News and the GOP. Al Gore is best as a neutral statesman because of his global warming crusade, which needs to be bipartisan. I agree with Hillary and Schweitzer though.

14. Vincent Bugliosi .

15. Not all of Obama's surrogates suck

There is Kerry, Richardson, McCaskill, Wexler, etc. Out of your list. I prefer Al Gore. No Carville.

One of the best I've seen yet:

He's been traveling the country meeting with veteran's groups, and he is remarkable!
