Frankly, I don't see a viable candidate among his options. I think when he makes his choice, his support will start to scatter. He either alienates a segment of his "base," or leaves himself vulnerable (weakness gaps) no matter who he chooses.

2. Where would all the racists go?
McCain needs those votes if he's going to have any chance of winning.

Choosing a minority would destroy his chances.

3. nah, then we switch roles. Obama can smack both McCain and Condi...
Edited on Wed Aug-27-08 04:00 PM by apnu
And Biden can saw into McCain too. Instead of having the Prez vs the Prez, and the VP vs the VP, we switch them. Then any thought of Biden beating up on a black woman (hey the GOP and the MSM will play it that way, don't shoot me) will be nullified.

Picking Condi does not change the game for us, but Biden did change the game for McCain.

Relax, we'll be fine with or with out Condi as a challenger.

Plus, imainge all the ads O/B can run, all the footage of Condi really screwing the pooch for 8 years. She hates her job now, and has endorsed Obama twice already in that sideways talking way of hers.

We'll be fine, they'll be toast.

(on edit, clarity)

8. My sense of humor is very dry
I apologize. I should have included this: :sarcasm:

I thought people would get that I was kidding.

I agree with all of your points above.

4. Are you kidding? Do you have eyes?
She is a woman. She is not white.

Why do people insist on believing that racists and sexist Republicans will love Condi?

They won't.

5. Nothing says "I'm not Bush" like choosing his mistress as VP.
That'll be fun.
